There you go if you need anything else let me know i also emailed you the diagram's so you can read them better.

The picture looks different than what I see.
Looks as though there is a bar that wraps under the front side of pan, coming off the mounts on the eng.

How far is the drop needed, to remove the pan?

Might be a big can of worms for me to try.


Thanks Again.

Made a 20 donation. Hope is is enough.


Thanks

It look's like i see a bar under the front of the oil pan in the diagram i posted if you look close.They charge 4.6hr's labor to do that job so i would say it's a pretty big leap for you to do it.AS far as getting it out you would have to unbolt the engine and raise it as high as you can so you have clearance to clear the pan.AS far as the donation goes you donate how much you want.
