Default Remove Bumper to drop gas tank?

Hey all,
I am planning to change the fuel pump on my 2002 S-281. Looking under the car, we do not have to much access to the back of the tank/ wiring harness. Do Saleens need to have the bumper removed to drop the fuel tank? Help from someone who has done this before would be really appriciated!
Thank you,
Erik

The Bumper is fine there is just enough room to get a long extension and socket to loosen up the bolts. You will have to cut the zip ties and then you can manipulate the gas tank down.

I didn't remove my bumper. It's not too bad. Make sure the tank is almost empty.
