Yes you do have to drop the tank!It's a royal pain in the butt!
But first,get all the gas out that you can to reduce the weight.
Another tip is to check the ground wire at the tank where it is connected to the frame.Corrosion here will cause funny readings.
When you drop the tank,(there's 8-3/8th's bolts holding it to the frame you must remove)not much hose or wires,so go easy.Some prefer to raise the bed!Now,clean the ground on the frame and check guage again.Should read correct.
Still bad?Now unplug the wire on the sending unit(one with the rubber boot on it).Ground it to a clean bare spot on the frame.With first ground wire still grounded.Should read full too.
I just today finished mine.I replaced both sending units with the Spectra brand from O''Reilly's.
