Did you take off the gas tanks to replace the rockers/floor panels? Is this necessary? Im thinking it would be a good idea but I had people on the internet say you dont have to.

i took off my gas tank to por-15 the whole frame and it deffinatly made doing the cab corners alot easier. and i didnt have to worry about blowing myself up from the fumes while welding
