Well I have officially "finished" my first fabrication job for my buildup. I trashed the old steel gas tank in favor of a 12 Gal poly one. Here are some pics of the mount that I came up with.......
The frame is all made out of 3/16" x 2" angle. The tank will be held in place by a 3/16" diamondplate skidplate that will be bolted to the flange that I created with the bottom pieces of angle. I measured against my other frame with the stock tank still in it and looks like I gained about 3" to 3.5" of clearance.
Now I can get the frame painted and then start on the lift!
