Fuel Tank Skid mounting holes

Hey all! I searched until my eyes started to cross, not finding the trivial tidbit.

I'm putting a skid over our new fuel tank, wondered if anyone had stock gas tank skid off and could measure the hole spacing from side to side: 1990 Cherokee LTD, 4.0L, 4wd.
Just going off the Jeep I have 36 1/2" C-to-C on the front set, 35 1/2" C-to-C on the rear set. Does this sound about right? If I scribe a center line between the ribs, are the holes equidistant?

BTW, I'm patching and reinforcing a factory skid from the recycle yard. It's not pretty, but I have the time and steel to fart with the thing. I just have to minimize downtime on the Jeep.

TIA, Mike
 
Starting from the rearmost holes:
35.75"
35.75"
35.75"
36.5"

Take it to the bank.:thumbup:



Oh, and mount your skid under the tank.:D
 
AWESOME, Thanks!
A couple more layers of that 10 GA and it's gonna be hard to line up. LOL This gets me in the ballpark.

Thanks again, Mike
