Pulling a few bolts off and lifting the bed is far easier than dropping the tank and takes far less time.

Dropping the tank is all the Suburban / Blazer guys have to look forward to.
I plan on making an access hole in the back of my Burb so I can get to the top of the tank to service the fuel pump without dropping the tank. I've got the idea's in my head so I know what I want it to look and work like. When I do finally get around to doing it, I'll post pics and a write up of it. But probably not until next summer.
