I've seen this done by loosening the engine mounts &
jacking up the front of the engine. Be careful how the fan blade is positioned
if you do it this way.

Subject: IML: OIL pan HELP -centerlink in
the way!
I am doing some engine work and have some stuck lifter,
some unstick and come out but one falls into the engine and is in the oil pan
I hope. This does not upset me as I will just unbolt the oil pan to remove it,
wrong, wrong. The centerlink has to come off, so knowing that I am NOT to use
a pickle fork I go to NAPA an buy a pitman arm puller with a 1 5/16 opening.
Put it on and screw it down tight and wack it some, same process repeated.
Well, I think I must be moving the right item, wrong again. The sides of the
puller have pulled around the centerlink and are spreading as I screw and
wack. This is the only size puller I can find so I must be doinf something
wrong here. Does the car need to be on a lift? Please, coach
me...
