Oil leak
 
I have an 86 suburban 1/2T 2WD that is leaking around the oil pan front & back. Sides are dry front to back. There is about 4 in. of clearance between the front of the pan and the crossmember. Will I have to raise the motor to replace the pan gasket? I'm going to use a 1pc. Felpro. I replaced the timing gear, chain and front oil seal about 75K ago. You can see where oil is leaking past the seal on the front of the pan. Any suggsetions??

you should have plenty of room to remove the oil pan with out lifting the motor , i do on my 85 C10.
