Pretty good deal, if you dont mind taking care of those minor issues. I would have bought it for the price.

yeah well come to find out its not the gasket its the oil pan it self!! just dont know how hard it is to replace iv heard people say you have to pull the motor is that true??

Yeah pretty sure you do

Why can't I find this crap???!!!!! That was a good deal!! Pretty sure an oil pan needs to be done with the motor out. The floor isn't a huge deal. Can be done with a drill, a bit of hardware, a ratchet set, and a few hours. The oil pan is something you should probably hire done unless you have the tools. Post more pics and if ya can start a thread on rebuilding that bed. Good luck to ya!

What exactly is the issue with the oil pan. where's it leaking?

its rotted threw rite under the cross member, when you fire the truck you can see it seeping threw, was thinking about trying to throw some goop over it to get by for now. but there is a bunch of other spots that dont look to healthy either, so parts are cheep around $250 from genos garage.. ive been reading up on it and i guess some people get away with undoing both motor mounts and raising the engine up a few inches so i think im goin to try it out see how it works! If i pull the motor im doin a full rebuild and the funds just arent there right now so im just goin to fix the problem before i create a project!

Stole it for 4 :c:

Oooph, thats the worse case scenario there. I thought it was something minor that could be brazed or welded. Moving the engine up off the mounts looks like a logical attempt.

I ordered the parts from genos garage soo as soon as they comin ill get to gettin on it let ya'll know how it turns out! was also thinking of maybe throwing a coat or two of undercoating or some rhino liner on the pan b4 i install it just to keeo it new for that much longer..
