72 XJ- 6 Fuel Tank removal

Does anyone have a good set of instructions for removing the fuel tank from a 1972 XJ-6? I have the "quarter panel" removed, the gas drained and the sending unit disconnected. However, I am having trouble removing the filler assembly (gas cap) and I'm not sure where all the other attachments are that hold the tank in place. Any help would be appreciated.
 
Bumper must go too, bolts from inside boot, remove fuel lines,push tank up, remove clamp on filler, remove tank. They have a Haynes manual at Autozone for $21.00.
