Do I need to drop the fuel tank to change out this line? Thanks! Erik 1970 Challenger Convertible soon to be T/A convertible Contrary to the opinions of some, I am not dumber than I look.

I bought the pre bent from the dealer and wanted it in place, I had to remove the gas tank to get to all the clips and bolts for the brackets. I ended up replacing all the steel lines. just made the rest though. you will need a bubble flare tool and multiple size METRIC fitting. and time. between chasing down the fittings and laying on my back and dealing with rust, It took a weekend. I have done hundred of lines in a shop. wasn't my first rodeo. not fun on your back.
