Just a few words of encouragement.
I am restoring a 79 150 4wd with a 2wd box that had both tanks, so I too was looking for one of these tanks and bracket / skid pans.
I drove a 800 mile round trip to pick one up from a really good guy on this site. he just let me have it. It needed some restoring, but most of it was there.
They are really hard to find and most of them are rotted pretty bad.
Just keep getting the word out.

Question about midship tank hardware

I read on your post that you had a 78 4x4 crewcab parts truck with a midship tank. If you still have this, I would be very interested in purchasing the mounting hardware for this tank. I have a 78 4x4 crewcab that did not come with midship tank. I purchased a plastic tank from MTS but have had no success in finding any hardware.



my 79 f150 4x4 supercab also has a midship tank that is steel and I am not sure what my 3 other parts trucks, a 78 f250/4x4 78 f250 4x4 crew cab and a 78 f350 2wd crew cab have as far as the mid ship tanks go,they all have them[/quote]

So i put a fuel cell in my truck, if anyone still needs the tank skid plate/guard thing on a side hung tank, you can have mine for the cost of shipping, or come get the darn thing...might take a couple weeks to get it off tho..i am moving tomorrow.
