It's not hard to drop the tank, per se, but it is difficult when you have 15 gals of fuel in it. The actual job of dropping the fuel tank is pretty much straight forward. Two straps, lower and unhook lines etc. But it was rediculously easy to lift the bed instead and not have to be on the ground reaching up on top to disconnect lines while trying to hold the tank in the snow.

And on the the replacement end of things, after the pump is installed, you can run it and make sure everything works BEFORE dropping the bed back down. Putting a fuel pump in from underneath and reinstalling the tank only to find out it still doesn't work, is no fun.
