I have a 2004 3500 5.7 w 4x4. My oil pan had developed a leak, not bad, but leaving penny size oil marks on the driveway over night.
I have read that you need to either raise the engine, or drop the axle to get out the oil pan. I looked this morning and it appears that I have clearance to pull the pan with out lifting the engine or dropping axle. Is the engine/axle work required or is that only on the 1500's?
If any one has done this repair, any tips?
