No, there is definitely more, but this was by far the worst spot in the truck. There isn't a driver side rocker, but I am doing sliders so I don't need them anyway. I would like to do the floor again the right way this time, but right now I am just going to drive it.
On another note, the fuel pump crapped out
I get to pull the tank again, yippee....
You could always make a removable cover and cut a hole in the floor 
Just sayin

Someone on here...maybe Rene? Did a pretty clean version of that. Made a door, hinged it, sealed it, etc. Pretty good way to do it.
I have one in the floor of my 1990 K5 from a previous owner. I wish it wasn't there. It's not THAT hard to drop the tank. Especially if you buy new straps.

I didn't put the tank in all the way (in my one bright moment of clarity). I just had it strapped up there, but still. It worked before I took it out, worked when I took it out of the tank after it wouldn't start, put it back in again, and then it didn't work
I just got a new sending unit and pump. I figured this one has 240k on it, might as well just get a new one.
Replace the intake sock on the pump as well.

Make sure that sock is. on the sending unit nice and tight. I put a new unit in my blazer and when i put a new tank in after my shackle flip, i found the sock had fallen off and was in the tank... Stainless steel hose clamp did the trick to make sure it doesnt fall of again.
Truck is running and on the road. Drives pretty good, no issues really. Just had to tighten my steering box bolts up (again 
). Put in a new longer brake line today, did an oil change, and some other little stuff.
OH, and I'm doing my sliders tomorrow
