Removing driver's side fuel tank?

I've found a pinhole leak in the drivers side tank of the 86 longbed. Now I'm trying to get the tank out to either replace or repair it, but I'm stuck.

It seems like it's getting hung up on the 3 hard lines that go over the frame. Is there a coil of rubber line up in there so that the tank will drop without having to disconnect all that from the sender, or what? I'd love to not have to try to take the bed off to get to the top of the tank. What's the usual way to replace these things? I've had the single passenger side tank out of the '80 stepside a few times without a problem, but this dual tank thing is different.
