What are the risks if I disconnect the fuel filler pipe from the body? I noticed rust around the hole in the body where the fuel filler pipe cap sits, so I would like to disconnect the pipe from the body and move it away to sort that out. It is held by only two bolts, so I do not see anything special there.
P.S.: How high could you temporarily lift your body from the frame after doing all the separations which you listed, and how did you lift it (several bottle jacks perhaps, on which locations?)?
Do others have anything else to add or advise?

The bolts behind fuel filler flap just snapped off when i tried to remove
that's why on my current jimny i removed the hose clip.
Has i was only doing a body lift. 1 high lift farm jack was used
Lifted the rear first got around 6" clearance at back body mounts
Then after dropping in the 4 body blocks 2 @ rear 2 @ front seat belt mounts
i dropped the jack and moved to the front
Front lifted to around 5 to 6 inch under head lights
