Isn’t the cargo area a great work bench?!
Hey, something to consider-
If you want to be able to take the tank out(or, install it) without dropping the bumper, you don’t want those nuts welded to the top of the crossmember.
With them installed the way you currently have them(as I do too, but not welded), the bottom lip of the bumper will cover up the bolts- leaving them not removable.
If you weld the nuts to the bottom of the tank supports, you can still access the bolts from the top bumper cut outs, pull the front bolts, and slide the supports out from under the bottom lip of the bumper. It’s actually perfect, because you can let the straps rest on the lip of the bumper after you take the rear bolts out of the straps.
Does that make sense?
