So was this tank lift a "no weld" option?
I have a 4dr, and I know the tank is diffrent.  Is it a "funky one bolt to the frame like the newer ones" like on the 2dr models?
In other words, would I need a older 4dr tank skid for your type of lift?

And about that t-case shifter mod.... Inovation man! thats what its all about. ;D
That was the positive way to look at in.  In other places it would be called the Redneck mod. LOL

Yes, my tank lift was done completely free of welding. On newer 2 door models, the right front skidplate mount stretched over to and was bolted to the frame, where on older 89-90 models all 4 tank skid bolts matched the location of all 4 tank mounting bolts. The bolts would sandwich the tank's mounting flanges between the skidplate and the brackets hanging from the crossmembers at all 4 corners. I have no idea if you could do something similar to your 4 door. You'll just have to get under there and see.

One tip though, having the tank near empty makes it lighter and easier to manouver, but also increases the amount of explosive fuel vapor lurking. Be CAREFUL, especially if using a grinder or cutoff wheel to remove any brackets!
Had a cool sig pic till I changed the text... sigh...
