since the studs that hold on the fuel pump hanger are broken off i need to replacemy fuel tank. Is there a write up anywhere? What need to be removed? Does the diff need to come out? Or can it be done by just taking out the exhaust and drive shaft.

 

Before you get too serious about removing the tank. Did you post up in the wrong forum?

If you have an EvO 8 or 9, look at this repair that was done
