Default Re: Steering column support underside of gas tank

Those are riveted to the tank with a reinforcement inside the tank. Not any good way to replace it without opening the tank. Generally what we find is the rivets have made radial fractures from the rivet holes. The tank and the reinforcing plate need to be welded up and redrilled for the new rivets. Just soldering won't seal it up from my experiences.
