I went out this morning to replace the gas tank on
my 60 4dr with a real nice replacement tank I purchased from Lowell Howe (
Imperial Saviour extrordinaire!!) I have been soaking the studs/nuts with
penetrating oil for about 2 days now. Didn't matter, can't get the
nuts off. I tried a nut buster, but not enough room to get it in
position. If I put too much torque on the not, the mounting brackets that
are welded onto the frame start twisting. I don't want to break those tabs
off.
Can anyone comment on the path of least
resistance? I think my options are:
1- cut the straps
2- cut the studs
I don't know what's easier to get replace, the
studs or the straps. I'm sure somebody has been down this road
before.
Thanx
