A fuel tank mounting system for allowing mounting of a fuel tank to a vehicle during assembly of the vehicle. A movable base moves along tracks on an assembly line and supports a fuel tank adjacent to a vehicle. Movable fastener drivers move to align with corresponding fastener apertures on the vehicle and drive fasteners to attach the fuel tank to the vehicle. Because the fastener drivers are movable, the system may be reconfigured to mount different fuel tanks to different vehicles needing differently aligned and/or differently angled fasteners.
