I was looking at it and it looks like they wont fit through the floor pannel will they? and if so it also looks like I have to remove the dash sections is that right?

Yes the foot rest under the helm comes off by its self and the whole console on the other side is one pice. Don't have a pic with the pice off under the helm Or the floor out ill try and get some. It's simple to do

Thanks caseyh but I looked at mine and the foot rest is molded into the helm and in the upper right corner of the helm thats molded into the top deck. Its weird most of it is bolted on and some is molded in. I wish there was a way to inspect and clean the tanks with out pulling them. I was hoping not to have to do fiber glass work.

pulled tanks, both helm floor panels removable (screws and caulking held in place), tanks held in w 4 plates and foam each tank, removed as much foam as possible, remove steering wheel, cut away a small corner of aft floor with no structural effect, mechanic Left attached to hoist over night w pressure and tanks pulled loose from foam.
