360 tanks straps and diff braskets

Post by Ride_on »

These are fairly specific need replacing quite often (well the diff brackets do). I just removed my tank and had I put on 1 new strap and 1 new bracket before taking the car off the road, now the other ones need replacing for the B230FT going in.

Scrap brackets normally unusable, they get severe galvanic corrosion from the bush frame. Really should have been painted.

Any one tried getting these? or are they a fab job now? I'm surprised more people are not complaining about broken diff brackets.

Hi mate.
Don't know if my Tank brackets are any good on the old GLT but
if they are, you can have them.
Cheers Mark.

Cheers! Need to get those springs soon, when would suit you for a visit? I'm pretty flexible.
