I didn't remove the tank completelly but I did remove the cab steps and the front carrier bracket. That allowed me to drop the tank some and pull it out enough to slide the lines in and out. You can reuse the steel lines as the rubber lines are just crimped on with a collar and the steel lines are barbed. You just grip the collar with a pliers and work them off and replace with common fuel hose and hose clamps. Only trouble with not removing the tank is you cannot get to the lines on top of the fuel tank to unhook them. I removed my seat as it need a roller kit anyways and removed the plate on the cab floor. That allowed easy access to the top clamps on the tank. I replaced all the rubber lines, supply and return as I didn't want to tear it apart in a few years again. I guess if your seat is in good condition I would just drop the tank but it will have to be empty and you will need a helper because its hard to handle. Also if your wheels are set for 30 inch rows you might have to slide a wheel out. Mine is set for 38 inch rows and it was tight just to drop it a few inches and pull it out so I could replace the front hoses. If you buy the lines from CNH they will run $60 each so just replacing the hose will save you a bunch and will be just as good as installing new lines.
