Drop Oil Pan??

[squeekyM]

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the replies on my first post. My truck is leaking very badly from the oil pan and i need to replace the gasket. Is it simply a matter of undoing the motor mounts and lifting the engine a bit to squeeze the pan out? Or is this going to be a bit more complicated then that.

Also, is it possible to do the timing cover separate from the oil pan or is it necessary to do both at the same time. I was planning on doing the oil pan gasket now, and the front cover a few weeks from now. Is this possible without ruining the oil pan gasket. Thanks for all the help. Take care.
