I'm confused, I'm not aware of any crossmembers holding up gas tanks anywhere, only straps.

Can you post some pictures of what you're trying to describe?

There is a crossmember that goes between the frame rails and over the side tank. Then the strap slides into a pocket on the cross member were it meets the frame then it bolts to the other side the crossmember
