JMO413 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I had a hard time finding gas tank strap bolts. After looking for a while I finally found some cheap and readily available. Goodmark PN# GMK2111749681. You can get them from Rock Auto or Summit. Hopefully this will save someone else some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Dan Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I've used these as well, they're great Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dzimm Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Good find! Looks almost exactly the same as the factory bolts. Does it come with nuts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMO413 Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share Posted April 13, 2020 Unfortunately no. The good news is that they are just standard 3/8 nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolwind57 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Good find. A couple of years ago, I replaced my gas tank and used stainless steel eyebolts and cut a hook with a die grinder. This may be another option. I just didn't want to have to fight rust again in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComancheKid45 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Bent carriage bolts are a good alternative as well 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMO413 Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share Posted April 13, 2020 They were under $2 each from Rock Auto. At that price the correct bolt seemed like a no brainier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy crap, that's worth just throwing an extra set or two in an order just to have extras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 3 extra sets to go with the 3 extra sets of tank straps I have. The tank straps were $4 a set on wholesale closeout from Rock Auto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dzimm Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Dang you found all the deals! I think I paid like $20 for my tank straps without bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMO413 Posted April 14, 2020 Author Share Posted April 14, 2020 I enjoy the hunt for parts and a great deal makes it even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
