One Person Bed Removal
Well I decided to move the tank to the rear. So hooked a 6 ft chain to the crossmembers under the bed (making a V). Then I hooked a Tie Down strap to the chain and routed it through the fender well. on the other end I hooked it to an Cherry Picker. The Picker I pushed the legs on both sides of the tire to keep it from moving.
Then I jack the side of the bed up as high as I could without hitting anything. Then got on the other side of the bed and lifted by hand and backed the off the truck to the side. Then I jacked it up as HIGH as it will go. and tilted the bed on its side.

Re: One Person Bed Removal
You can also install eye bolts where the bed bolts to the frame, and lift it that way. I moved my hoist in from the rear of the truck, that way I could pull the bed completely off and set it on the ground. I'm always scared the cylinder will fail when I'm under whatever it is you're hoisting.
