I had to change out my fuel pump on my Silverado and looked at all the options. I came up with tilting the bed. This was by far the fastest pump I have ever changed!
Start with removing a couple of torx screws on the filler door and a plastic fastener. Then just push the assembly into the fender.
Move under the truck and remove 4 bolts on the drivers side holding the bed on loosen the same four on the pass side so you are engaged into the threads by 4 turns.
Move to the back and remove the tailgate. Then go undr and remove the 2 electrical plugs from frame to bed.
Thats it, now have a 16 inch 2 x 4 ready and put your shoulder under the drivers fender well and push up and put the 2 x 4 between the frame and bed just past the axle. I put two more in for safety.
The next thing is to remove the fuel pump and install the new. Pretty straight forward.
