I am in the process of removing my 19 gallon metal rear gas tank on a '78 F-150 to replace the sending unit. There are both upper and lower straps holding the tank in place. Do I need to unbolt the upper straps to get the tank out of the truck? If I do, the front bolts have about two inches of mud encrusted threads. I have loosened the lower straps, but the tank still didn't want to budge.
