Those came with the f26b fuel tank (which is the wrong one!!!!!)...to extend the straps for the 38gal volume.

Hi Lee. I don't post much, but I've been around a while and watch other projects a lot. Is that Nate's (formerly) Frankenstroke?

This should be fun....I am like a kid in a candy store right now...I just need my other vehicles to sell so I can free up project funds...

I can neither confirm nor deny at this point....I would agree that Nate's content is very informative and of the highest quality.

Yup, looks like a build I have been watching and talking to the owner about.....but I know nothing....and 2+2 is not 4 no matter what they say.

Good times Lee!

Update time....

First fuel tank wasn't right...sigh...I did eventually get the right 38 gal tank..and what a pain to install...now the 4" tail pipe doesn't fit...
shower head was broken on the original... that got fixed..
led tail lights, marker lights, third brake light installed (originally ordered 2" barker lights...needed 2.5")
Cab steps need the suspension bolt flipped...still on hold

Next projects are steroe (I am half way into it) - finish cab steps - start dodge power seat - and bumper hitch
