It is standard to install the tanks early in the assembly process. IIRC the frame is upside down to make it easier for the person on the line. As a rule, one of the supports is welded in and the other is screwed into the frame at both ends.
If you take the screws out, it should allow you to drop the tank, and I have done this too many times to count. Now the straps from one support to the other and the way they are installed IS an issue IMO, but I bet its the fastest cheapest way of doing it. I'm glad to hear you got it fixed.
