dragon green 5 Posted June 14, 2013 M8 x 30 Block the tank up with some wood,do the single strap first,then the double,is a straightforward job ! Here's a pic of mine to show of my stainless ones ! Lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon green 5 Posted June 14, 2013 Only five,! One bolt does two straps,it goes through the little locating bracket at the rear of the car ---------- Post added at 12:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 PM ---------- Edit !

GlosterOx 0 Posted June 14, 2013 I used M8 x 25 St/Steel ones with washers when I did mine, fitted a treat!! Ian. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
