The problem is the gas tank is under the rear subframe. Fixing/replacing it involves dropping the whole rear axle and removing a lot of bolts that are very rusted on. I thought about it but with the labour involved in just getting it out to maybe find that it won't bolt back up together was too much of a risk.
