On a 2nd gen 24v is there enough room to sneak the pan out with out hoisting the engine off its mounts?

 

I think you can sneak it out for a 2wd but not a 4wd . pumpkin being in the way and all

 

I noticed a little sound in the bottom end, wanted to see if it was a piston pin or something. While I had the pan off, was thinking about rolling in new bearings. Figured it couldn't hurt since the pan would already be off.

 

have fun. . .done it once. . .found a bearing sciezed to the rod. . .would rather not do that again.[:@]

yes, ended up having to pull the crank[:'(]

 

LOl thats no fun,well bearing are cheap insurance.

 

I had my oil pan replaced already and i don't remember them saying that they had to lift the engine, but i DO remember them saying that they had to remove the tranny.

 

Thats what I figure, bearings only cost around $50. Not much more than an oil change. Compare that to an engine if you loose a bearing.
