Brian: I lowered the 90 gal. fuel tank in my previous 1990 GeorgieBoy Cruisemaster. The tank was held by long bolts. I used 18" pieces of 1/2 inch allthread to replace the bolts. Square of plywood on a floor jack to hold the tank. Move the nuts & washer down on the allthread and lower the tank a few inches at a time. I used 2 nuts at the top of the allthread to lock to the frame so I did not unscrew the rod as I lowered the tank. The threaded rods keep everything lined up when raising the tank and it won't try to get away. Watch the connections, vent line and fill pipe.
My tank was less than a 1/3 full and I would not recommended any more fuel than that. (I had to guess how much fuel was left in the tank because squirrels had eaten the sender wires at the top of the tank.... My fuel pump was external)
