wondering if i have to drop the front cross member to drop the pan.. i have to take the pan off because i did not do a good job of putting fitting of the return line of my s/c and will have to weld it on as it is leaking oil.. from the looks of it it looks like an all day job but wondering if theres any way around it?

 

don't look for short cuts spend the day and do it right. otherwise it might cause more problems
