Re: Gas tank mounting plates

I have both the strap j bolts and the driver's side loop bolts threaded through the tank holes and the spacers. I'll take a picture tomorrow. The replacement tanks do not have the tangs that would hold the passenger side plate in place. The j bolts do hold them in place on the tank flange and against the frame on my replacement tank. Per the assembly manual illustration provided further down by 69-72, the original set up didn't have the j bolts through the spacers or tank flange on that side.
