Removing oil pan?
Seems simple right. Got the bolts off. Its loose, then I remove the friggin' sway bar...now it STILL won't come out. I've been trying to tackle this POS for the last 2 hours...I could remove my whole engine faster than that...lol.
So, how do you remove it? Am I supposed to remove all the steering components to then take it off? Am I supposed to loosen the engine then somehow jack it up? I seriously don't know.
PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks!!!

sure.
but that's all did on my 91- drop the sway and xmember
there's a baffle in the pan too so you have to make sure to not catch the pickup in it.
drop the deep side of the pan straight down then work the pan out.

lol
Anyway, the top bolt is a beotch to get off. I've hit a wrench with a hammer like 100 times and it's moved very little...lol. My cheater bar won't fit over it either. I have some penetrating oil soaking it right now...hopefully it will be easier to remove
Back to work I go!!!
