Glad to hear she is running again! That is certainly a step in the right direction. Did you put any cushion between the tank and frame, and between the straps and Tank? If not I would recommend both.

Re: 68 GMC 4x4 Suburban build up



got a whole stainless steel brake line set from Inline Tube

which they sent me a package for a blazer of course and didn't call back after they "checked into it" like they said they would....

"extended" stainless steel brake lines from Off Road Design which I am VERY impressed with but I should have ordered longer as the rear line is the exact same length as my old rubber line.

Going to go ahead and pull off all the brake lines and match them up to the new ones as I don't think they match well AT ALL... we will see

Also noticed the fuel line is HACKED when they installed the aux tank so I am going to replace that as well. Our 69 Pontiac Lemans caught on fire from a faulty fuel line (it is fine) so I am not going to skimp on that...
