Bed removal
I am installing my FCG tank this week. I decided it would be way easier to do it with the bed off. I need to run my steel fuel lines as well and it would be a major PITA hooking them up with the bed on.
I have a short fleet bed. Is it held on with just those 8 bolts? I have pulled one off and it looks like they have been off before. It came off pretty easily. I am assuming I just pull the 8 bolts and unhook the plug for the lights and I should be good to go. How many people do I need? Once I get the tank mounted I am going to run a short fuel line from the tank over to the frame so if I need to pull the tank I can unhook the line by the frame. Otherwise I would have to pull the bed just to pull that tank again.

Those 8 bolts and the electic plug are all you need to remove as long as you can clear your rear bumper. I had to remove mine, but yours may be different. Two of us removed my shortbed, but 4 are recommended if your backs are not so strong.
