Removing Bed

I need to replace the fuel pump in my '98 and have decided to remove the bed. So for those of you who have tackled this job, how do I get to the bolt that is behind the tank without dropping the tank anyway? I stopped in my tracks and came right here. Thanks.

one way or another your going to have to drop the tank..

Did they leave you enough room to get a wrench on it or a long extension with a flex socket?
Let us know how it goes.
Good luck

I started in the back and the hitch was covering the holes in the bottom of the frame so I assumed there were no holes. Well, there are holes and the bed is off. Took all of ten minutes to get it off. Thanks for the replies though.

You are welcome .
And thanks for posting back what you found.
Glad you got it figured out.
Good luck
