One bolt is next to the panhard mount on the chassis, and can only be reached with a huge extending piece for a ratchet which I dont have. The other bolt I can sort of reach but it's very much stuck in place...both where covered in undercoating.
I only managed to get the tank a bit more empty...now it only has it's reserve left on the gauge (dont have any more jerrycans left).
I wish I had a bigger toolset over here....or better yet some airtools..

Anyone have any suggestions? I'm starting to reconsider grinding a bit of the boot floorpan out and just taking it out from the top...

Just press-out the pins out of fuel tank support "tapes" hinges under the rear bumper instead of loose these bolts.
