The fuel pump is located inside the gas tank and is part of an assebly along with the fuel sending unit. The pump can only be replaced with the tank removed from the vehicle. This involves removing the rear half of the exhaust system, the cross bracing members and the protective shield under the tank. The rear differential must be disconnected from the shock absorbers and lowered to allow clearance for the fuel tank removal. This is a time consuming task and has presents several challenges for the do it your selfer, starting with draining the existing fuel from the tank (anti theft measures make siphoning all but impossible). Also, although it sounds simple, removal of the exhaust system isn't easy since a torch is usually required and you more than likely have a strong fuel presence in your work area due to the nature of the project. This is best left for a professional or experienced mechanic.
