Also, if you drop the tank, buy the bolts and nut clips that hold the tanks straps to the frame. They usually break or strip.

Ok. Upon reading all this information I figured it's not a 3 hour job. And definitely not during today's weather. I will bring truck to a mechanic on Tuesday. I want to know how much would it cost to fix that problem. Also my steering leaks I add liquid all the time. I do have a small puddle on a ground. And I can tell where I parked. But it's nothing critical. I just want to check all outcomes, is it worth fixing at all.

Are you in an area where they salt the roads in the winter? It sounds like you might have rusted lines if so. Have the shop check the power steering lines and brake lines while they are looking at things just so you have an idea. The advice about possibly rusted fuel line on top of your tank applies. They should be able to snake a camera up there to see.

I will be bringing truck into a shop next week.
I would like to do everything at once. I need to replace shocks. Also rear is too high. I don't know what is the cause. Previous owner installed some cheap shocks, yellow off brand, no idea what it is. But truck drives like pickup . I want something more comfortable for long trips. I drive 2 hours sometimes. It's getting annoying. I thought something from Rock Auto but I see lots with autoride and I'm not sure if truck still has it.
Who can recommend something comfortable. And send me Link please.

1) For the windshield glue: Razor blade and a lot of Windex. Spray it. Let it sit for a few minutes and then use the razor blade to get the glue off. It’s a PITA but that’s the best way to do it.
2) Shocks: I recommend the Rancho 9000s. They are adjustable and will not break the bank. Not the BEST shock out there but I think it will keep with the ethos of this truck for you. I have these shocks on my Suburban and my wife likes them. Wife approved = good
