Anyone in Central Texas up to help with Tank mods?

Hey, the procedure looks pretty straight forward but I'd prefer having someone around who's done it. I was planning on pulling the bed instead of dropping the tank. I've got a decent tool arsenal and cold beer. I start cutting out at about half a tank. Sucked this past weekend pulling my camper! Anyways, If you're around Killeen and up to give me a hand, pm me or post here.
Thanks,
Brian

There's a few guys down in the Austin area. If you don't get a response here, go to the OBS forum (94 - 97 powerstroke) and start a thread asking about Death Row Diesel. They'll chime in soon enough and usually don't mind helping out.

The tank is plastic so if you can siphon all the fuel out the tank can easily be held up by one person vs four for the bed. For tools you just need the correct socket for the straps, fuel line removal tool and a PVC pipe cutter. If your removing the mixing chamber then add in a metal pipe cutter and a few wrenches to turn the compression fitting.
