Next question, why do the GT fuel tank hangers have a cutaway where the bracket meets the chassis rail?
As the pic shows, the winch cable on the left-hand side of the vehicle passes along just under the inside of the chassis rails guided by pig tails mounted on the chassis. It would appear this is for clearance for the cable, although I think it passes slightly above when taut.
On my F60L the cable abraded the brake hose on that side, so that's something else to watch.
This is a LP9 FGT.
