Anyone know part numbers or even better where to get fuel tank strap bolts for 2004 Mountaineer. I'm trying to replace fuel pump and I can't get bolts off they are spinning in place, so I'm going to have to cut the straps and then cut the bolts. I can't seem to find the part online.

To make matters worse I snapped two crossmember bolts, after I read that crossmember needs to be removed, but after a second look I can just slide the fuel tank over crossmember after I remove the straps, I'll deal with this later.

I don't know why I figured working on a 15 year old Northeast rust bucket wouldn't be an issue.
 






Nevermind, got it out, visegrips on the other end of the front strap bolt, and lots of krano oil and slow turns on the aft strap bolt.
