Removal of bladder tanks (long range) from C206?

We use a C206 Soloy (with Allison turbine 250-C20S) for paradrop. Standard fuel tanks are integrated tanks in the wings. Additional tanks are 2 bladdertanks (rubber) in both wings. The last 10 years those 2 longe range tanks has given us a lot of troubles and costs (leaking, fuel imbalance etc.). How is the procedure (administrative, law) to remove those 2 longe range tanks because we don't need them for the operation. Technicaly it seems not a hell of a job but several persons told us that the modification back to standard tanks is an expensive and time taking night mare. Someone experience with this?
