Replace pushrods without gas tank removal--'05 Fatboy

Hey guys,
Upgraded '95 Fatboy from 88 to 95". Installed SE tapered adjustable pushrods. Bad press about adjuster nut problems makes me want to remove adjustables and replace with SE Perfect fit -30 pushrods. Can I lift the gas tank far enough to allow removal and replacement of pushrods?

John

Possibly but it'd be easier to just pull it all together, IMO. Before doing ANYTHING, be sure to put a rag under the crossover line clamp on the right side since it will scratch the dog $hit outta the rocker box lid when the tank is moved around.

I agree. Sometimes it's easier and faster to take the extra step than it is to skip removing something that just ends up constantly in your way.
