Oil pan has a small leak Are all the bolts easily accesible, also can the pan be lowered enough to be able to clean it and put a new gasket in it.without lifting the engine

I believe the gasket is attached with some type of rivets, I don't think you can just pull it off and swap it out.
I think you'll have to take the pan off for the swap, at least you'll have to remove the K member... I think.

no way in hell the pan comes out without lifting the motor and dropping the k member about 10 inches. it sucks but thats how it is. do poly motor mounts when you do it. prothane from summit for about 50 bucks.
