Oh yeah, the cheesy plastic fuel line disconnect tool package. That's where I wasted most of my time.
Really wasn't too bad. If you ever see instructions that say the straps are just holding the scrape guard on the tank, it's a lie! They are holding up the whole fookin' tank. Luckily I had a floor jack supporting it just in case.
I removed the 2 straps and lowered the front of the tank while the rear stayed in place (didn't have to disco the filler or any of that stuff). 6 small bolts and 2 fuel lines (metal fuel-line disconnect tool works wayyyyy better than those crappy plastic ones). Angle out the old pump, drop in the new one. I used a 2nd floor jack and 2 jack stands to raise it and hold it back in place while I put the straps back on.
I probably spent just as long fighting the stupid fuel filter bracket as I did replacing the pump.
