When I got my IROC, the previous owner had cut a hole through the trunk to get to the fuel pump and cut through the hard lines also. I have a used set of Hard lines for my car now, but theres no way to fit them through the hole he cut, nor can I cut away anymore. Ive read that the rear axle has to be dropped to do this? Is there any shortcuts or cheats I can take without having to drop the entire rear end? ANd what are the thoughts on moving the pump out of the tank and putting an in-line one in? Thanks in advance!

 

Its really not hard to remove the axel, should take about 30-40 minutes. I don't think there is any other way to drop the gas tank without removing the rear end. Im not sure about the inline.

 

When I had to take mine out, I just dropped the panhard bar and the exhaust. Rear axle didn't have to come out.

 

I stand corrected then.

 

we just dropped the exhaust and gas door and the rear bars and it came right down with a little coaxing...its not a fun day but it is about the only way your gonna get them replaced

 

Thanks for the info! Sounds alot easier than I thought though, at least I wont have for fork out alot of cash to have someone else do it. Thanks again!

 

if youve got a buddy to help ya with it ...itll be alot easier to drop and lift back into place also...
