hey guys, so i recently discovered that my oil pan has a couple rust spots and has begun to leak. does anyone know where i can get a replacement? i tried summit and jegs, and neither have oil pans for our trucks. summit does have oil pans for the 318, but its for '93 and older 318's. id like to get this fixed before it gets worse! thanks guys.

 

Rockauto.com has one for $74

 

o reilys, autozone, adavance auto parts all have them

 

Bone yard will be your cheapest route.

 

If you want, I can pick one up for you at cost plus shipping at my bone yard. I live in cali so you don't have to worry about rust. let me know.

 

well, from some of the reviews i have read on the spectre pan from advance and rock auto, they have clearance issues with the crank shaft. so i want to try to get something aftermarket thats decent, maybe a moroso? i want to try to stay away from the JY cause i could run into the same rust problems i have now(alot sooner) than a new one.

 

you should take up J415 on his offer....
nothing wrong with a non-northern state (salt) junkyard factory oil pan. it'll last forever.
PM him...

 

yeah, i already pmed him. waiting on a reply back, gonna be a couple weeks before i can get it cause i gotta register my camper and pay the rest of the fee for my camp site for memorial day weekend.
