    Help, Help

    I'm ready to install the rear gas tank, but don't have the three brackets that hold the tank to the rails. I have the factory manual showing 3 points for attaching to the rails. One on each rear corner of the tank and one at the center front.

    I know how the brackets are shaped but don't know how long they are. They are made from flat bar with a 90 degree bend at each end. The two rear ones have one corner clipped at approximately 45 degrees.

    From the exploded viev they appear to be approximately 2" long with each bend approximately 1/2" to 3/4".

    If someone, with a original 1971 with the factory rear tank, could measure these brackets and post the measurement, I would appreciate.it.
