Removing fuel tank

I see there's no reply yet, and the site was down for a few days, so let me ask, why are you removing the tank? If the fuel pump is not running, AND you have a metal tank that is rusty, use a grounded test light to measure for voltage on the tank itself when you first turn on the ignition switch or during engine cranking. If you find voltage there, the pump is not grounded due to the rust. An easy fix is to drill a small hole outside of the seam weld, run a self-tapping screw in there, and attach a separate ground wire that is also attached to the body or frame.

I have a 2002 Chevy s10 crew cab has the small bed on it. Everywhere I see it says there is 8 bolts holding the bed on, 4 on each side but I can only find 3 on each side maybe because the bed is smaller. Does anyone know if the crew cab has 6 or 8 bolts holding the bed on?
