Would anyone have a photo of how the Atlas tool tray attaches to the frame. It looks like the long frame support bolt may pass through it thus supporting the rear of the tray but not sure what supports the front. Thanks
 
There is no long thru bolt on the Atlas tool tray. Two short bolts are fitted at the rear securing the tray to the frame tabs. IIRC, there is a bolt and nut fitted vertically at the front of the tray. I will have a look at mine tomorrow and report back.

Ok thanks. Concerning that long bolt and spacer connecting the two sides of the frame, is it critical that it is installed? The reason I mentioned that it might pass through and support the tray is that there are bunch on Ebay and they all seemed to have two 3/8” holes either side of the tray towards the rear.

The short bolts at the widest part of the tool tray come thru tabs on the frame and secure the rear part of the tray.
The two bolts in the middle of the tray are securing my Podtronics rectifier/regulator.
The bolt in the "neck" of the tray secures the front of the tray. Originally, this bolt had a nut under an "L" shaped bracket welded to the frame. I tapped the hole with a thread to eliminate the nut. Not purity, but for EZ on / off.

The long thru bolt above the tray has nothing to do with the tray, as you can see. I do think it is necessary for frame rigidity,

HTH, Slick
