Default Fuel tank size question

My 1995 F150 Supercab short bed flareside 4x4 5.8 needs new tank straps on the front tank. I bought it almost 2 weeks ago and one of the straps are broken and I don't know what size of tank it is. Can anyone help me with this?

My 1994 Flareside has 16 in the front & 19 in the rear. I should add mine is 4 x 2.
