    If my memory serves me correctly, if it's a 4x4 you have to remove the front diff. and the cross member, and then unbolt a couple trans bolts. This should be able to all be done from under the vehicle, and without jacking up the engine. You also have to drill out the orginal pan gasket rivets if it already hasn't been done.
