Changing the fuel pump on a 06 f150

Has anyone done it?
Drop the tank or remove the bed?
ETA: Check before you remove the bed. My fuel pump was under the cab and I couldn't reach it.

I've heard of it being done both ways. Removing the bed seemed to be the preferred method. It sucks, but you should have bought a Toyota.

On my 97 Chevy I went the bed route, but only had to tilt it back not remove it. Just remember to disconnect the tail lights, something I didn't do, and almost broke the wires before I figured out what had me in a bind. It took me no more than an hour to complete.

If the gas tank is empty, drop the tank.
If the gas tank is nearly full, remove the bed.
I did mine in under an hour by dropping the tank.
Just put a floor jack under the tank and let it down slowly.

Have you looked at the fuel pump module. It's mounted on top of the frame above the spare tire and is a common problem. The aluminum on the module corrodes due to the contact with the frame. The electronics inside get wet and fuel is shut off. Drop the spare and take a look at it. It's plug and play and only has two bolts. If you have an 04-08ish F150 I would take a look at your module. If it's in good shape put something (I used duct tape) between the module and frame to prevent corrosion.

My dads went out on his 01 last week they took the bed of and then realized that they still had to drop the tank. He was pissed.
