Re: Cab fuel tank bracket removal?
A number of people have described removing the bolts and spot welds that secure these brackets, and removing the whole bracket.
I thought about doing that, but I'm leaning towards leaving the brackets in place since the brackets provide some additional support and stiffening between the floor and the back wall. This stiffening may help with resonant vibration of those panels.
However, I did use a side grinder and cutoff wheel to trim the brackets to remove the front lip, and added some plug welding in place of the bolts that previously secured the front of the bracket.
