I searched, watched youtube videos, and went through the TMs. The M998 tank removal procedure does not work on a M1165A1 because the tank uses 4 steel hardlines for fuel and vent. These lines crossover the top part of the transfer case and get hung up on the transfer case if one tries to drop the tank in the same manner as a M998.
Do all these steel lines need to be disconnected at the top of the tank before it can be dropped?
If thats the case there is no point in disconnecting the rubber lines on the side of the tank, from underneath, as shown in the old TMs.
EDIT: I figured it out. I will edit this thread into a HOW TO instead.
