Gas Tank Blazer style install - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Bought a Blazer style gas tank. After playing with it for a few minutes I figure out it won't sit inside of the Botton rails. I bolted it to the bottom of the rails. I had to do some trimming on one corner to make it bolt up. How do the straps hook up ? IF there any pictures out there that would be helpful. It looks like it going to work ?? Bolting the tank on the bottom of the frame rails the right way ? Waiting for the wood for the Bed removed the old. Made it easier to play with the tank. Tank in question is from Truck shop. Am I going about it the right way ?

So he says its a 4~5 of 10 on the difficulty scale - he sure does make it look easy!

Oh a LMC Video too (not that I want to buy anything from them again).
