Dropping fuel tank on kzj70

[jacob757]

I need to drop the fuel tank on my 1994 kzj70 3.0L and was wandering if there was a technique to doing so? Is there an inspection hatch above it from the boot to dissconnect things before dropping it? Thanks very much!

Put a jack underneath the tank with a plank of wood going across, then undo the two straps at the tailgate but dont lower the jack yet. From the rear right wheel arch remove the underbacking sheet with is there from the factory to access the fuel filler hose. Disconnect it from the back. Then lower the jack a little bit until you can see the top of the tank. After you will be able to access the sending unit.
