What is the total length of you cab-tank stud and what is the length of the threaded section on that stud?
My suburban studs were broken, so I have no idea of the correct length. I made studs and cut them to length by test fitting (and trimming the length as needed). I decided not to use rivets to attach the stud to the strap; I used small round/headed bolts.

That sounds about right. I will measure the stud this afternoon/evening and post a reply.

It looks line mine are about 4" total length with about 2.5" threaded. I will make a more exact measurement tomorrow. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 348 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 348 | thanks tim i also like your website i also have a 54 3100 deluxe cab | | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 348 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 348 | the studs are the same it worked | | |
