1988 Dakota Sport Oil pan

Hello,
I have a hole that rusted through in the bottom of my oil pan on a 1988 Dakota Sport 3.9 V6. How difficult will it be to replace it? Thanks.

Is it 2wd or 4wd? I will move this to the 1st Generation Dakota sub-forum.

Not very difficult, just remember to pull the dipstick before starting. You may have to unbolt the engine mount bolts and raise it up to clear the crank. I have an extra pan if you interested.
