fuel tank mounting
 

to mount my fuel tank i was going to rivet a sheet of aluminium on the bottom of the rear tub, so i can mount the fuel pump/filter and anything else i might need there.

Could i sikaflex the fuel tank to an aluminium base which is then riveted and bonded to the chassis? would that pass iva?

if not i would have to bolt the straps through a box section meaning i would need crush tubes which sounds like a lot of hassle to me.

can't you use rivnuts. or rivet on a bracket to secure the strap against?

could also do that. i was only thinking as sikaflex would be the most hassle free way of securing it.

Hi use rivenuts. Make straps out of 3mm flat and line with stick on rubber

okay cheers guys. didn't think rivnuts would be iva friendly but seems i'll go that way now
