Its been awhile since I removed a sending unit from an A body. Does the tank need to be lowered or dropped to allow removal of the sending unit? Or can I just pull it out as it sits? The vehicle in question is a 72 Dart.I want to remove the sender to check for a sunk float.

I suppose it wouldnt hurt to raise the rear end and support the frame on jackstands to allow the rearend to hang,allowing some clearance?
