□
Insert the threaded end of the cable through one of the lower
holes on the tank strap flat bars. Select the appropriate hole that
best matches the frame of the vehicle. If necessary, use the
supplied spacers over the threaded end to provide for proper
tightening.
□
Place a 5/16 inch flat washer and nut on each tank cable strap
and tighten just enough to hold the tank in place but loose
enough to allow the tank to be positioned along the frame.
□
Slide the tank rearward on the frame as necessary to provide
clearance for attaching the hoses.
□
Attach the swivel fittings to the front of the tank but do not tighten
them until the hoses are attached at both ends and are properly
routed.
All hoses, tubes, and wires that are rerouted or shifted
during installation must be secure so that they do not
contact excessively hot areas or sharp edges. Where
possible use rubber coated P-clips. Follow the routing
suggestions in this manual and cover all hoses with the
supplied plastic loom.
□
Route the straight end of the 3/4 inch hose from the engine
compartment over the body mount to the tank.
□
Route the longest 1/2 inch hose from the engine compartment
outside the body mount to the tank.
□
Connect both hoses to the matching swivel fittings on the tank,
but do not tighten them.
□
Locate the OEM hole in the lower frame section next to the
transmission cross-member and Insert an M8 x 25 mm bolt
through the hole.
□
Place the supplied flat bracket on the bolt and fasten the bracket
in place with an 8 mm serrated nut so that it points outward
toward the driver’s side.
