It can be a pain yes... You have to remove and replace the motor mount under the harmonic balancer. You have to raise the engine up to do this, which includes unbolting the old motor mount, and loosening the motor mounts for the tranny and dog bones. Once this is done the old motor mount can be taken out. This is the point you take off the oil pan and do what you have to do on it. Make sure you support the engine properly befor lifting up the motor, and only lift it in places that are designed to take the weight. DO NOT USE THE TRANNY PAN, DO NOT USE THE OIL PAN. On the passenger side of the engine right by the alternator you will find a strap loop. Attach a chain here and use a engine hoist to lift it up.

1. Be Careful. 2. Remove old oilpan. 3. While you are there replace the oil pump and wire out your oil holes. 4. Replace with new oilpan. The oilpan does not need to be torqued to it's limit - just enough so it doesn't leak. Gasket sealer only makes things worse. If your oilpan is getting pressurized you have other problems. 1.

The rear oil seal on any automotive engine is located at the rear of the crankshaft, which is usually only accessible once the oilpan is removed. The exceptions to this rule concerning the oilpan still involve removal of the flywheel or flex-plate to gain access, as these seals are installed from the exterior of the crankcase onto the crankshaft.

You don't need to. Just unbolt the motor mounts and lift the motor up. Get under the truck & remove the oilpan bolts & remove the oilpan. remove & replace the oil pump. ake sure when you put the new sump screen on the new oilpumop, you measure the sump depth in the oilpan.
