Is this tiny little bolt(x2) the only thing holding up the 500 pound tank?

If Im 4x4'ing over rough rocky bumpy roads that bolt or the sheet metal its hooked to would rip apart correct?

This cant be the only thing holding up a 500 lb tank???

The picture is in this pdf install file, I cant post it.....

The current version has metal straps that hang under the sheet metal pan (img 15) and there is still the bar to the crossmember in the front (img16). The pdf file is not current.

FWIW,
Michael

Mine looks to be held in just by the two straps, in turn secured with just those two little screws. . . :confused:
