It was inevitable-fuel tank straps wearing out!!
As the title suggests,the tank straps on my F-150 are letting go(one has already detached,lowering the rear of the fuel tank a couple of inches). I found some replacement straps on eBay for $33.00. Is it possible to replace the straps while the tank is still on the truck or does it have to be dropped completely? Also,how long does it usually take to replace them(my F-150 has the 30 gallon fuel tank,I've been trying to reduce the weight by driving the truck to burn off the fuel).
