Default Does plastic tank save disconnecting shocks

because of the flexible fuel neck or do you still usually end up disconnecting the shocks even for the plastic tank cars...doing swap this weekend, and even though it's not a big deal it'd be nice to know ahead of time if i don't need to get the car as high, I'm liftless this time around

I dropped my rear probably 4-5" lower after disconnecting the shocks and still had to fight the tank out. I assume the plastic tank will flex and help you a bit, but I doubt you'll get it out without disconnecting the shocks.

Thanks for the reply, I'll prepare to get it high enough for that from the start then....

Have never had to disconnect the shocks to remove a tank.
