Gas tank pic request
« on: July 16, 2016 - 09:16:25 AM »
Hello all!
I'm about to put in my new fuel system & have a quick question about my tank strap.
My old J bolt looks different from my new one, which isn't a big deal, because I have an idea how it all goes back together.
My problem: I had to have the frame welded in the exact spot the strap (on the bolt end) is attached.
I see some drilling in my future, but I'm not too clear just by going with the illustration in my Haynes.
Could anyone snap me a pic of the bolt end of the tank set up?
And any advice from anyone that's gone through this is also welcome ;)
Thanks!

It is normally a slot a little bigger than the bolt with a larger round hole @ the top to fit the J bolt , the other end of the strap is similar with a slot but a wider sort of triangular opening to get the strap into the slot
 I would take a picture but I do not have a car anywhere close to me .
