Re: --///*** Need some help ASAP ***\\\-- If you've dropped the rear end already...
You have to rotate the front edge down and pull it toward the passenger side. Keep in mind that you have to disconnect the lines before you get the tank lowered all the way.

Re: --///*** Need some help ASAP ***\\\-- Disconnect the bolt that holds the brake hose block to the rear diff.Then it will drop down even more, be carfull not to break a line though!
It will give you extra room to work with.

Re: --///*** Need some help ASAP ***\\\-- Also, the shocks are the only thing that keep the axle from dropping down a lot further than they do. If you have a floor jack under the differential, you can disconnect the lower bolt on the shocks and slowly lower the rear end down until you don't have any more play in the brake lines (after you removed the bolt, like wrencher mentioned). That should give you enough room.
