Re: WTB "U" bolt for mounting gas tank
Brian this is hard to find in decent shape. Most end up like yours did.
I would suggest just making one. That is what I did. I bought a piece of cold rolled rod at the hardware store ( I think it is 3/8 but measure to be sure). Cut it to the overall length. Put a couple of bends in it and then used a die to cut the threads up each end. Took less than an hour. Here is a picture of it when done. I had just sanded it up before paint.

Re: WTB "U" bolt for mounting gas tank
Actually my memory is bad. Looks like it is 3/8". Here is a link to a thread on it. You can see some different versions people made.

Re: WTB "U" bolt for mounting gas tank
Thank you. Another member suggested the same thing. If someone doesn't have one laying around on the shelf I am going to give it a shot.
