So right now there is a bracket that goes directly onto the underside of the frame. What if I just offset where that bracket goes about 2" by bolting the bracket to 1/4" steel stock, and then bolting/tacking that to the frame, thus moving the whole thing about 2" further left. I don't have 2" of thread to make the bar itself longer, and that might be easier than cutting/welding the bar.

So if this is the bracket as it is now:





This is what I could do to move it 2" further:



I could also move the tank, though when I installed it I welded nuts to the frame for easing mounting, and would need to redo that.
