23 gal poly mid ship fuel tank straps?
any you guys running a 23 gallon front poly tank.if so,would you happen to know what straps fit it? thanks.
mine had it.and i had to cut the straps to get it off due to rust.
i had a puncture hole in it.and i grabbed another just like it from salvage yard.nice sender/pickup to boot,that ill hang onto for future use.
if you go to car-part.com and search for them,you will see they were common.but no luck finding the straps.
i got the front one off actually,and can reuse it.
im gunna try spectra st132 i guess as it appears to have a strap of 34 3/4". looks like this may work? the front strap is shorter,and i actually have a new one for a past truck i never replaced,though this happens to be the one i didn't have to cut too naturally lol.
if i get no replies,im going to pick it tomorrow,i know its close enough to 34" or so to use a longer bolt,or toss something under the strap to suck up some space.

spectra st132 worked out good.
the longest strap reaches no problem.i just had to bend out the factory bend,and re-bend an inch or so down the strap.burnt a new hole through it with the torch,and i was in action.
filled her up 23+ gallons of diesel,and ready to roll.
gunna suck for someone who needs both straps cus the shorter one,is to short for the front.
i used my old one.
