I picked up an 08 gas tank and cover for my 2012 build, I have searched some and cant find my answer yet... I have swapped the front mounts and it seems they are about 3/8" to narrow on the new tank set into place with the 05 front tank mounts on the 08 tank.

Anyone verify what parts I would need to finish this swap correctly? I was thinking 08+ Front tank mounts and other parts but not sure if the mounts are the same, they have different part numbers..


Thanks for any information
Cody

I did the same swap on my build and I'm pretty sure all you need is the 08+ front mounts for that 08 tank and of course the tank stap and an 08 petcock ect... the 04,05 have the pegs on the sides with the rubber straps and a different petcock size.

Perfect, I was thinking the same thing but wasnt sure. Just wanted to make sure on the parts before ordered... Ill have them ordered tomorrow and everything I use I will get part numbers together and list them here for anyone else that wants to do the swap...

Thanks!

Any updates on how the gas tank swap went? I was curious if you could write a parts list, cause I am interested in doing this as well. Thanks.

Hey guys, Sorry it took so long to get back to everyone on how this swap went.... I totally forgot about the thread...

Swap is super easy!!!!! These are the parts you need to do the swap.

08+ Gas Tank
08+ Tank Cover
08+ Pet Cock
08+ Front Gas Tank mounts
08+ Rear Stay Plate
08+ Bands


With all these items you can do the swap easily, like i have done.
