YOU will need the car on a hoist, doing it on the ground is almost impossiable, disconnect the filler neck at top, remove the straps, lower tank slow and disconnect wiring and fuel hoses, you need a special tool to remove the gas line retainer clips.

Try looking by your left foot, while sitting in the drivers seat.

it does require some patience truly relax and the use of a floor jack is most helpful and maby even a 2x4 i assure you it does fit ....a tough job when working from the floor i know but please be patient when reinstalling it .. also an empty tank makes it easier take your time and im very sure you ill get it into place it came out from this vehicle correct and you know it was there once .please let me know how it works out for you remember the neck should go up first
