I just looked up removal and installation of the tank and there is nothing in my database. We have a caddy guy in here, hopefully he sees the post, if you dont see anything then repost the question. Ill see if I can track him down

Its vary easy to replace, 1 or 2, 10mm bolt and it sits in a gromet, remove the hoses and unplug the cooling level sensor, if your new tank doesnt come with a new sensor buy one, its cheap. But I think it does, or go to a junk yard to get one
