[Mg-mmm] J2 gas tank rubber

[Gary Krukoski]

Hi Bob
I was told and used 1/2 thick rubber strips 1inch wide. I ordered one square foot of 1/2 rubber. Using two strips for the area behind the tank and tub. Sloping then a little to help the run off of any water.
The rubber came from a restoration supply co. I can not locate there catalog at this time.
Hope this helps.

Gary

Subject: [Mg-mmm] J2 gas tank rubber

I am trying to install the J2 gas tank and need to know the thickness of the
rubber on the chassis under the tank.
And also the thickness, size and location for the rubber strips between the
body and fuel tank.
I have owned this car for far too many years, got it as a basket case and so
have no idea what the rubber looks like.

BTW, have a new repro spare wheel/tank attachment stainless steel system.
Unfortiunately this new stuff does not come close to the original and so
more guessing as to tank height and location.
Thanks for your help
