Thats true,, it can be quick,, or not so quick, Have you got a place set up to lay the tank? Have ytou got a place to lay out the parts as they come off? All these little things add time to a job, better to be slow & move carefully, plan ahead,,getting done quick isnt as important as not needing to do it again,or not having a dent somewhere after its done that wasnt there before, wade off in it,, take your time,

Got the sealer on hand?

I used an Allen wrench wedged between the upper frame member and the center of the plug. If you don't, the plug has a tendency not to seal properly and you'll be doing it again too soon.

There is a bolt that is upside down that must be in first also (front left).
