Tank Strap (260z 2+2 - though probably the same on others?)


Recommended Posts

Somehow, I've misplaced one (just one!) of the straps that hold the fuel tank in place. 

 

If someone has one let me know, I'm willing to pay or donate to the site, and not too concerned with condition as I plan to strip it back and paint, add new rubber welting, etc

 

Also having trouble finding the bracket that I assume exists at one end of the outer-most strap... I've got both the J bolts that hook on, but there seems to be no where to hook on the outer-most straps' J-bolt, so i assume there was a bracket there (hard to tell - mine's since been re-coated in sound-deadener, etc so there's no visible marks in the area, though there are a few mounting holes scattered round).

Sweet - well if you're willing to part with it let me know what you want and when are good times to come out to pick it up I'm out north but work in richmond - could swing out to the SE suburbs after work one night or later in the night, or a weekend (pref saturdays), etc.

 

Also it's occurred to me that the two straps probably differ from side to side... i'd better check tmw which one I need first...

OK finally got a moment to get outside and check which strap I still have - it's the outer-most one, and measured approx 840mm roughly by pulling a tape measure round it.

 

So the one I need will be the one closer to the centre of the car, and I suspect will be shorter.

 

If you happen to also have the bracket that the outer one attaches too it'd also be a help, however not such a big deal as I'll probably find it - I've only really looked for the strap so far.

I have both, so when you come around, you can pick the correct one. Don't have the bracket though..might be easier to fab one up?

I'll PM you my details.
