RV-4 fuel level sending unit replacement question.

RV-4 fuel level sending unit replacement question.
I need to replace my RV-4 fuel level sending unit (float type). Is it necessary to remove the entire tank or can this job be done through the wing root once the fairing is removed?
Thanks in advance.
