Default Oil Pan Removal

Does anyone know if there is a write up on how to remove the pan with the engine still in the car. I did a search but couldnt find anything good to explain how to do it.

So if anyone has done it please give me some tips.

Thanks
JC

If you're trying to see if you left a rag in the engine, could you look through the oil drain plug (with a camera?) to check?

pull k member while holding motor up. the rest is very straight-forward. have fun, throw some poly motor mounts in while you have it off.

I removed the alternator, a/c (to get to the motor mount bolts) and supported the engine/tranny before i dropped the k member. Dont forget to unbolt the struts and spindle from lower control arm and unbolt the sterring from the top bolt.
