Does anyone know of a source for new 1/2" U-nuts to use at the left front bed bolt when you have a frame mounted gas tank? The original broke when taken apart. The local hardware stores here that have those style of nuts don't have any larger than 3/8"........
If not, I guess I'll have to weld a nut to the frame before I put the gas tank back in.
