Default Re: dropping the pan

Pete,

Be easy on yourself, jack up the front end and turn the steering to one side, locked. That will move the tie rod away from the front of the oil pan.

Yes a thin wall deep socket will reach, but when re-assembling only use a 1/4 drive ratchet so you don't find out how easy it is to snap a bolt in an difficult spot.......jb
