Tips for Installing Torklift Tie Down 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 with Diesel Tank in Way
Question:
Trying to install these on a 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 with Cummins. Drivers side has fuel tank mounted against the frame rail right where I need to get some nuts mounted to bolts for the bracket. There are also some lines on inside rail partially covering same holes. Any advice on best way to get those nuts in there? Thanks!

Hey Christoph, so worse case scenario you would have drop the tank but hopefully there's a way to maybe just loosen some of the bolts on it and maybe the lines so that they can be temporarily moved so you could install the # TLD2100.
I also attached a video on how to fishwire bolts that might be helpful depending on access.
