Howdy all, I have a shop that's dropping my tank to repair some major rust issues. While the tank's dropped, I'm thinking to just replace the fuel pump since it has 250k on it and I'm not looking to have it dropped in the near future.

What else should I have them do while they're in there?
Anything fun? Aux fuel tanks are obnoxiously expensive ($2k+??), so that's out of the question. :(

Here's all the part numbers I could grab that looked to be related to it...

Fuel Pump - Toyota (23221-66040)
Fuel Pump Tank Seal - Toyota (77169-33020)
Vent Tube - Toyota (77018-60060)
Gauge Assembly, Fuel Sender - Toyota (83320-60340)
Suction Tube Plate - Toyota (77168-33050)
Fuel Shut-Off Solenoid - Toyota (77380-26010)
Filter, Fuel Pump - Toyota (23217-74021)
Breather Tube - Toyota (95312-13028)
Connector Hose - Toyota (77213-60130)
Connector Pipe - Toyota (77011-60070)

Would these all make sense? Anything else while it is dropped?

Thanks in advance!
 
Though it makes sense to perform "while it's dropped" work, Mr T. gave Land Cruisers an access hatch for the fuel pump and so dropping the tank is not necessary for that one job. If it is just replacing a rusty tank 'skid cover', dropping the tank is also not necessary. If the actual tank is rusty, well, that's different.
 
Insulate the underside and exhaust side of the gas tank to mitigate fuel boiling/vapor lock during summer season.
 
If your tank is rusty enough to need dropped and RR’d/replaced, I would strongly consider checking your fuel lines too. I paid less than $150 for all hard lines from Toyota, that was about 4 years back though.
