Unfortunately I don't think this will help you out. I have also done this AWD->FWD conversion and I know it doesn't make it any easier to get to the fuel tank in my car. The problem is the rear end drive and suspension assembly is all one piece (essentially) and bolted to the car 'through' the gas tank. You have to take the whole rear drive and suspension assembly off to get the tank down... total pain.

I still think your best bet is to strip the interior out and try to figure out where you need to cut an access hole from above...
