Cutting access in the floor to replace fuel pump

I have a 1995 B3500 van with a 36 gallon gas tank. It's a real PITA to replace the fuel pump. My idea is to loosen the straps enough that the tank lowers enough to slide a piece of plate steel between the floor and the tank and then cut a hole in the floor with an angle grinder to access it. I would then add metal to put the patch back in and screw the cutout floor back on. Has anyone tried this? It would have been nice if Dodge would have done this.
