My gas tank skid is pretty rusty with the major issue on the passenger side. Jeep funds are low following a $800 full brake job after blowing the rear driver side brake line at the drum. How long do I have until my tank falls to the ground?
After looking at replacement photos I'm not even sure what I currently have is actually a stock gt skid (PO hack job?). I know there are $300+ aluminium Savvy skids but I don't do any serious off-roading. I've been keeping an eye on CL and FB market place for a stock part out but it's tough in NY to find one not equally rust compromised. Are there any inexpensive redneck engineering options like a ratchet strap that are worthwhile? Hoping I can make it through the winter.
