Re: "Midnight Rider" 1970 C10 SWB Fleetside

I got some parts back from the paint shop, including the brackets I need to install the fuel tank. This went pretty quick since everything was pre-drilled. The only thing I still needed to drill was the rubber isolator pads that go between the tank mounting flanges and the frame. I put the tank in place with the floor jack and lined everything up. I ended up trashing the zinc hardware that was provided with the kit. I bought longer stainless bolts so I could use a locking nut. I installed and torqued these bolts to 45 lb/ft. This thing looks awesome sitting in there!!!
