I had the opposite experience with my Gen II. I removed the rear bumper (6
bolts), Rear Wheels, and bed bolts. Slid the bed back a couple feet and had
perfect and easy access to the pump. It was surprising easy to do. By
myself too. A few more bolts then dropping the tank, but I feel it the easy
way to go. May be different on a Gen III though.
