Can the fuel sending unit be replaced on an installed Jeepster plastic fuel tank without having to lower the tank?

It would be hard. You typically drop the tank.

When installing this tank, does the fuel sending unit need to be calibrated to this tank, or will the fuel gauge read correctly full to empty?
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
You always will want to make sure that you are getting the proper swoop with the sending unit prior to install. But once you adjust the tabs for the arm range and it reads properly with the gauge, it will work the way it is supposed to once installed into this tank.

You didn't answer David Rundells question. He wanted to know if the external fuel pickup line, from inside the tank, is included and if the fuel line attaches to the outside of the plastic tank the same way as the old metal tank. The pictures you post do not adequately show how the fuel line is to be attached.
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
The tank has a nipple port to accept a flexible fuel line.

Willys Tech:
The fuel line and sending unit are separate. We have new sending units part number: 914848. You will need to reuse your old steel filler neck and our part number: 200462.

51 jeepster gas tank has a long fill neck. Your plastic replacement needs an adaptation? Such as cutting original neck of the fill nozzle off the orignial tank and joining it with a rubber gas hose junction-connector?
