Huh?

I think I need to see a close up of the bolts/holes!
I believe what Pat is saying, correct me if I'm wrong Pat, on the first side you have access to tighten the strap bolts but once the tank is in the way he didn't have the access he needed to tighten the bolts so he drilled two larger holes in the top of the frame rail so he could get a socket and extension in there to tighten the bolts on the lower side of the frame that holds the straps in place.......follow?
