Re: R&R my oilpan

Paul rather than drop the tranny, I would rather put the body on jack  
stands, hook a cherry picker on the engine and drop the k member down a little  to 
get the final clearance needed, I have never tried it this way, but can not  
think of any reason it would not work

I need to change the oil pan that was installed on my engine  during the 
recent rebuild.  It is a generic 8qt. pan that hangs @  3/4" lower than 
my old pan.  The problem is that it drags going in  and out of my 
driveway as well as on other things like speed bumps.   It drug one too 
many times and now has a hole.
My question is how far  do I have to raise the engine in order to wiggle 
it out of there?   Will I have to unbolt the tranny and basically pull it 
all the way  out?  Or can I leave it bolted up and just undo the exhaust 
and some  of the other misc. items?
