As regards the fuel tank fixing I can confirm that the standard set-up works fine; you really don't need any extra tank fixings indeed that might make matters worse by transferring loads from the body onto the tank. You stick some chassis tape (closed cell foam tape) to the shelf that the tank sits on and also to the back of the A-frame bracket. Certainly on mine the tank is a pretty snug fit by the time the bracket is all bolted up. Incidentally, the A-frame is not just a spare wheel bracket, it provides support from the chassis to the top of the tub.
