How big a hole should I cut in the bed to get the job done, and does anybody know about where I got to cut?

[Old77]

If it was me doing the cutting I'd make the hole above the fuel pump location

Good way to do it if you got somebody to help lift it off. Give you a chance to take a good look at things under there. Check the brake lines along the frame near the tank. They usually rust up and fail. Shame you aren't close we could make a weekend project out of doing that and fixing stuff that needs attention and shoot a good coat of POR15 under there.

I changed my mind, I'm going to take it to my old ladies uncles shop, he only charges for the part and $15 an hr. for the mechanic, going to concentrate on drinking and eating chicken wings.
They don't make enough por 15 for the rust I got, I slid under the truck last night and tapped on the tank to see if it would go and all I got was a rusty eye.
