Auto Parts: 78 ford bronco gas straps, bronco tank, 1978 ford bronco

Question
have a 1978 ford bronco and is putting on a new gas tank and im trying to find out if a f-series truck gas straps fit a bronco tank so for no one can answer the question

Answer
Hi Jerry,

I'm going to place my bets on saying no, they will not. I don't have an interchange for tank straps but the fuel tank itself, whether a 25-1/2 gallon or the 33 gallon designs, only fit Bronco's of the same year (1978). Full size trucks (F-series) have separate interchanges and tank sizes so if I were to guess, I'd have to say the straps holding your tank in are not the same as those found on F-series trucks. But that's only a guess.

Looking for a reputable service technician? My advice on finding a good technician is: Steer clear of the dealership and 'chain' stores like Firestone, Sears, Pep Boys, Monro Muffler/Brake, Midas, etc. as they usually only employ ONE ASE Certified Tech just so they can say they do and chances are, that guy is the asst. manager or manager and is not in the store to diagnose/repair vehicles anyway. Find a service location in the link below or get some names out of the yellow-pages and do a drive-by. Garages that employ ASE Certified Technicians will be marked with the 'Blue-Seal' insignia. If unsure about whether a place employs Certified Techs, just ask to see their credentials. ALL ASE Certified Technicians will be PROUD to show and display their certificate(s).

Thanks for the question, I hope this information was helpful to you.
