1G 1G AWD Fuel Tank Mounting Studs(Under Car)

[livedsm4g63]

Wondering if anyone has ever replaced these studs? They are the studs that hold the tank to the body itself. Looking at my shell it looks that most are rounded and rusted. I could always use a die to clean up the non existing threads however I dont think that would be enough. Picture attached is of a random car, same studs.

What about drill out the old studs from the top? Inside car, then just put new bolts through the body?
Cant do this. studs are on the frame.

I could always weld on new studs.. Wondering what would work best. Anyone know the size of these studs?
Thanks!

Most likely a 10 x 1.25M. Just be a man and go fuel cell

Lol, Im building a 1g AWD N/A. Not sure a fuel cell will fit my needs as Ill be DD'ing it until it literally falls apart.

I was thinking it was 10x1.25 or 10x1.5 but cannot prove anything just yet.

Why don't u drill them out to fit a helicoil? Then use a bolt instead of a stud.

 

[livedsm4g63]

Good idea. Only thing I dont know, how thick is the material in this location.. It may be thin.

 

[boostdawd]

Should be thick enough for a helicoil. I would jb weld it also.

Hell everyone,

I would like to bring this back from the dead if thats okay. I recently got a 1990 gsx with a terrible fuel cell setup, and Im converting it back to stock tank.

My studs are fine just need a little bit of wd40 and wire brush action to them, however I do not have the original nuts to bolt the tank to these studs. Can anyone tell me the correct size nut for these studs? Thank you!
