Gas tank cleanout 1984 Pace Arrow

I have a 1984 Fleetwood Pace Arrow on a Chevy chassis with a 454 engine. How much of a job is it to drop the gas tank and clean it out? The original owner told us there is sludge in the fuel tank.
Also are there fuel pumps in the fuel tank or are they mounted elsewhere?

I have a 82 PA
There are 2 inline fuel filters on ours located on frame behind front passenger wheel behind a cover plate. We had too change a couple times. That was 8 years ago and have had no problems since.
There is also a filter on the back side of carb.
Not sure about dropping the tank. Hopefully it's the front tank. That's ownly 30 gallons. Any pics
