sticking a small 2x4 under the rear of the tank once you remove the rear tank bracket will allow it to be raised enough so you can get your hand under the tank to remove the hoses and sender connector. The tank won't fall as it's still being held in place by the front rubber doughnut thingys.
make sure the front wheel is pointed relatively straight to avoid hitting the front edge of the tank when you raise up the back of the tank.
