Oil Pan Gasket Removal?
« on: September 14, 2022, 09:00:00 PM »

Alright I have all the bolts off and it's loose.  Do I have to pull the front swaybar and/or crossmember brace to get it the rest of the way out?  I searched and read most of the threads, but never found a good answer.

Ok can confirm you can get the oil pan off from underneath, although I'm not sure it is easier than pulling the engine. ;D

remove all oil pan bolts
remove lower motor mounts, I have the top passenger one already off from head/timing belt removal
jacked up engine/trans with board under the trans until the lower motor mount bolts pass the brace they run through
drop exhaust
From here the pan comes right off
