> The tank itself is not too hard to drop, but it's hard to put it back up with all these vent hoses staying connected.

Nahhh. Don't try to connect them before raising the tank. Install your new lines or Y's or what ever, but leave it handing from the bus frame. Clean the tank up real nice. Reinstall the grommets in the tank. Put a little silicone on the inner part of the grommets. It'll help. Raise the tank and put on the brackets. Don't forget the fuel gauge sender!!! Then, only after it's in place, pop those five vent lines back in place. They go in easy. Pulling out is a bear, though.
