Replacing gas tank in my '65 Dart...

After the steps you mention, if you have the fuel line disconnected to the sender and the wire off you just drop the passenger side down and rock it a bit and it should slide off the filler tube.

You may want to spray the grommet sealing the filler tube with PB Blaster or silicon lube like twice a day for a couple days before you drop the tank so it's less likely to stick to the tube when removing. Also add a new grommet to your list of parts to buy if the tank doesn't come with one.

I replaced the old tank when I got my 64 Dart (rusted through). It was pretty easy and straightforward. Just watch out you don't crumple or tear your new filler tube grommet on re-install (ask me how I know). I also put in a new sending unit and also did all new lines all the way to the carb and added an extra filter as well. In for a penny, in for a pound. You only want to do this once and you also want peace of mind about the fuel system, so it's worth the $$ to do it right with all new parts. Same with the brakes.
