Nothing missing, the rubber moulding should slot into the cutout on the frame

Doent seem to hold it nice and tight.At the rear of the tank there is a plastic wedge and thats it.I do have two little rubbers which seem to fit on the bottom outside lip of the tank too but dont know were.Trying to line this body to the tank. Image

The 2 rubber bumpstops you have are probably the ones that sit on the underside of the tank on each outer edge and should sit on the frame spars. If they dont touch get some 3mm think foam tape and run a strip along each frame spar, that usually stops the rocking. You should have a rubber cushion at the rear fixing not plastic.
