I've done this once & need to do it again next week... It's a pain, not to bad but it's not pleasant. You need to drop the gas tank as it's inside... You first need to drop the spare tire so you have access to the fuel lines which you have direct access to with the tire off. You have to unclip all 3 of them (the plastic is very brittle) then have a jack under the gas tank to hold it in place once the straps are off the tank. Before lowering down the front of the tank there's a little black hose connected to another plastic connector which has to be taken off, it's small & semi-hard to get to but if you don't get it off it will break & you'll be stuck with a half done fuel pump job till you get a new one. It's job is to make sure the tank doesn't build up excess psi so it's important. Once the tank is down you need to use needle nose pliers to get the ring support off the top of the fuel pump then use a screwdriver or something to pry up on the fuel pump. When installing the new one make sure you have the gas line hook ups facing the same way as the one you just took off so when connecting it the lines will be able to connect. Then you connect the black hose on the front of the tank while raising it and once the tank is back up clip in all 3 hoses (in the right place) onto the fuel pump.
