OK so I hit a rock while messing around a few months ago and it knocked someting in or on my gas tank loose so everytime i hit a tiny bump it rettles like crazy. It is driving me abolutely nuts.

So I am wondering anyone know any places that might sell a replacement other than the dealership cause what they want for one is absolutely nuts! I have checked online and can't find any, I can only find the replacement gas tank straps.

Is it leaking? Why replace the tank if it's loose?
It may only require tightening parts. Take a look.
 






it is all tight, I felt the same way at first, but its become like that annoying bother the is stivcking his finger in your face screaming im not touching you.

i hate driving with the windows down cause every time i go over a tiny crack in the road it rattles. its driving me crazy. guess I will just turn the music up!
 






Maybe check a salvage yard. Have you taken it loose and made sure there is not something on top that is rattling around?
 






No but good idea!
