      Hi- first have the tank empty of gas.  You should have a floor jack as you might have to jack it down its heavy , and you can drive up on ramps or jack the truck up. the best thing is to spray up all of the nuts / bolts and straps on the tank with rust solvent- lqd. wrench, get new straps if they look bad.just spray everything good.you should have no trouble.
