Hopefully when the shackles come off, the welds will be an easy grind? They look like they've been that way for quite sometime?
Do the strap go completely around the gas tank, they should!
I just went back & looked at your first post, it's hard to tell, but the frame tails look intact? Are the shackles bolted or welded on the the frame tails?
If they are bolted, you might be in luck! :wink:
My Gusett's
Here are a couple of pic's, left & right.
The towels are wrapping my bumperettes & tail lights so I don't scuff/scratch the paint when the bed assembly resumes.
I've got some more, let me know if you need a couple more?
Your also going to need the bumperettes, left & right, the shackles you already have mount inside the frame tails and the bumperette surrounds it. There is also an inside reinforcing gusset on either end.
Couple More
