RE: 31 gal Chev Blazer gas tank

If you do the tank you will need to moved the emergency brake cable to the
drivers side of the opening about 9" left of stock location.
I went in line with where it was to the drivers side and drilled a hole the
size for the cable to go through. I removed the cable bracket from the
bulkhead and laid it aside to use later. I reworked the emergence brake
handle see picture and drawings. I used a 9" piece of 3/4" pipe. With a
hole saw cut a hole in the emergence bracket just larger than pipe then I
made a stand for the left end and the part to pull cable drill sawed hole
in it so to weld it over the 3/4" pipe and weld the pipe to the emergence
handle .
On mine I lowered the brackets to clear the bottom of the seat.
I sectioned the brackets and welded them back together after completing the
brake cable I put back the cable bracket (see picture)

On the under side I put in two 2"X2" angle irons about 26" long
I drilled holes for the straps to hold up the tank.
I put them a high as I could and ran welds about 1" at a place 8 or 10
times
on each one . They have to hold up a little over 250 lbs.
