Description
Nothing’s more frustrating than hearing fuel sloshing around while you’re trying to concentrate on your work, but a loose tank is more than annoying – it’s dangerous. When those mounting studs get worn or go missing, your fuel tank starts moving around, which can crack lines, damage connections, and create sparks that nobody wants near diesel fuel. This fuel tank stud set provides all the hardware needed to secure one mounting point on your MF 135 or 240 tractor, including the critical rubber washer that prevents metal-to-metal contact.
What You’re Getting
- Complete kit with bolt, rubber washer, and 2 metal washers for one mounting point
- Specifically sized for MF 135 and 240 fuel tank mounting points
- Critical rubber washer that prevents sparks and isolates vibration
- Heavy-duty metal washers that distribute clamping force properly
- Note: You’ll need 2 kits to properly secure your entire tank
Built for Real Farm Work
Massey Ferguson 135 and 240 tractors are reliable workhorses found on farms everywhere. These classic red tractors handle everything from hay work to cultivation, and they need their fuel tanks mounted solid and safe. The fuel tank mounting system on these models uses a simple but critical design – rubber-isolated studs that secure the tank while preventing dangerous metal-to-metal contact. Whether you’re baling, mowing, or running a loader, proper tank mounting keeps fuel where it belongs.
Made to Last
Missing or worn tank mounting hardware has caused numerous tractor fires. The rubber isolation prevents sparks while the secure mounting prevents line damage from tank movement. This hardware is built to handle the vibration and stress of daily farm work while maintaining that crucial safety barrier between metal components. The rubber washer stays flexible through temperature changes, and the metal components resist corrosion.
Installation Notes
This kit fits MF 135 and 240 fuel tank applications, providing hardware for ONE mounting point – order 2 kits for complete tank installation. Never reuse old rubber washers – they compress and lose isolation properties. Position the rubber washer between tank and chassis, using metal washers to distribute load under the bolt head and nut. Tighten securely but don’t over-compress the rubber washer. While you’re in there, check your fuel lines for wear and your tank for any signs of damage or corrosion.
