the steering wheel shaft to battery box edge distance looks about the same on Daves and your tractor........ sure looks like the tank is mounted TOO LOW.

I tried to duplicate Brad's measurements. Plus a pic of the saddle/support measurement. If you have trouble reading the measurements, both sides are pretty much 17 1/4. The rear was 17 3/4 off the torque tube.

Is your tractor power steering? One more measurement may be the shaft itself from the frame..... P.S. unit may be clocked to make the shaft higher.
also, is the Tank too far back? that would definately cause an issue.

BradH's tractor does not have power steering. Mine does. I was trying to replicate his measurements to the tank to see if it helps him figure out what part is not right.

Could that be a shift tower off a late WD? If so are the holes to hold the upright in a different place? Is the tower off a WD a different height than a 45?

Would a WC fuel tank be different?

I wondered the same thing about the fuel tank being from a different model and causing a problem. I've never been around a WC or anything else to know if the tank is any different. Thanks for the pictures and measurments, that gives me something to shoot for now. Can anybody tell me what size bolts hold on the saddle? That way I can buy some washers before I go out to the farm rather than have to go, take a bolt out, and come back to town to buy them. Anybody got any ideas on why the tank would be too far back? Like I said before, I couldn't really tell that the bracket had ever been messed with. Thanks again, Brad

WC tank is the same size as WD/WD45 just has fuel outlet on right side where WD has it on left.
