1993 6.5TD Engine Oil Pan
 

Hello All,

When I had my new engine installed, I didnt have the extra money to get a new engine oil pan. The mechanic spent some time fixing the matting surfaces with a hammer, but he told eventually I need to change it. I took my truck for oil change and the guy told me there is a leak from the oil pan. I was wondering is there a way to remove and install a new pan, without yanking the engine out. Or would be better to take the motor out, how hard is it.
I would appreciate any info or input, thank you.

if its 4x4 you have to take the front axle off and if its 2wd it should be fine right now to take off

It is a 4x4, and was wondering if its the axle that needs removing or the whole set up. Do I need to drop the front differential as well. Whats the easiest way to drop the whole thing.
Thanks for the help.

yeah you got to take everything down. if i remember correctly its only 6 bolts. if your careful you could do it on jackstands
