Call me crazy, but I've never found it that difficult to drop the tank on my stepside. Drain the gas out of the tank with a bulb siphon. Once its lightened, you can hold up one end with your hand while you unbolt and remove the strap, lower that side on a jack stand then move to the other side and repeat. Just have to keep it off the ground while you disconnect everything. I mean, if people are removing and installing the rear bumper for this 'hack' , then an empty gas can is way easier to manage.
