No, Danny,
You didn't read it right, or I didn't post it right. The factory
pickup runs from the top of the tank down inside and is welded to the
bottom of the tank on the INSIDE of the tank. When we moved the pickup
to the drain plug, we protected it much as it sounds like one of your
tanks is protected with shields.

John,
   So, what the tank originally for a pick-up had would have ripped
off
the first time you used the tank in it's 'skid plate' roll huh? I
don't
know exactly how the internal portion of the pick-u is on my two
tanks,
however, the one that isn't installed yet will be getting internally
coated with that Eastwood gas tank coat stuff, one of these days. When
I
do that I'll look at how the pickup is inside. I would hope that the
pick-up extends beyond the edge of the tank.
