Yep, so long as you've undone all the other bolts holding the tub to the chassis there's just the handbrake cable routed through the compensator holding it on.

You should be able to move the tub about if all the bolts are undone, but not backwards by more than an inch or two before meeting resistance. With hindsight I'd have undone the handbrake cable at one end and threaded it through or cut the compensator off to save the cost of a new cable later.

Good luck.
