1997 Cab & Chassis Fuel Tank

I need a new skid plate for the rear fuel tank on my 97 Cab & Chassis truck. The current skid plate is just about rusted in two pieces. There are also no straps on the bottom tank, just the skid plate, so I am a little worried about the tank falling out.

Can anybody confirm or deny that a skid plate out of a regular F-350 will work on the Cab & Chassis truck? Also, what about the tank straps? Does anybody know if pickup straps will work?

Thanks,

Bill.

The frame is 3" narrower on a cab & chassis truck than a pickup. I doubt the skid plate will work. The straps might work though...
