so my oil pan is leaking and i want to replace the gasket so do i have to pull the motor? or can i simply just unbolt it and pull it out?

guess thats a dumb question? it just doesnt look like it has enought room to drop and move out the way, and i dont want to unbolt and mess up the old gasket more and then not be able to change.

 

from my understanding ( eve though ive never done it) you loosen motor mounts and jack up the motor and pull it out. could be wrong though........

 

ok so i dont have to pull it just lift it up thanks.

 

ive done it with out pullin the motor its a rear bitch,you gotta unbolt the body and set on 4x4 un bolt motor n tranny,and do a lot of jacking,lifting,prying.then drop pan but will not come all the way off just drops down about 5-6 inches but enough to remove old gasket and then you are able to snake the new gasket back into place,now i think about it i wouldve been easy to just pull the dam motor

 

yea sounds like it. thanks
