brothers rear mount gas tank? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought it and just wondering if anyone else has installed the same one. I have to cut my frame for the filler tub, but besides that the holes line up in the frame to the holes in the tank but it also came with j bolts. Where do the go? Could I just use long bolts threw the frame and tank then put a nut all the way up the threads for holding the tank to frame and another nut on the same bolt to hold up the strap.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I am working on it now.

I installed mine with drilling thru the holes like you said and not using the J vbolts. I can send pics later today. I didn't have to cut the frame though. You have pics you can post of what you're referring to?
