you should have no problem getting what you need.
oil pan on this page

I have the bottle jacks to help making the oil pan change out less of a headache.

Thanks Dawg....and Alex! NEFBA rules for getting some help when you need it!!!

So far, the rockauto site is easier to use since it lets you drill down to what you need. The lmctruck site has a full page of stuff and it's a bit more confusing.

according to the rockauto site for the transmission pan, i've got to figure out if it's a 4-SPD AUTO TRANS(MD8) or a 3-SPD AUTO TRANS(M40) but it's nice that it shows you an outline of both.

Not yet Ron, but it's almost done!

The old front steps have been removed and the new steps are not in yet. There is a lot of small detail items....like putting in toilets that still has to be done. Then the final thing is painting the exterior.

It's close though.

It's close Dawg. The only major item left is outside painting which is about 1/3 of the way done.

I've been working my ass off at the old house to get it ready for sale. I talked to a realtor a couple days ago and it should be listed in about 2 weeks.

A funny thing happened on Thursday. I was stuck in traffic on the way home and my wife called in a panic. She said that we were being invaded by "HUGE RAMS!" and there were a bunch of them eating apples off our trees and I better get my ass home.

When I got home, it turned out that we had 5 Scottish Highlanders that walked about 1/2 a mile and decided to visit. There were 3 bulls, 1 cow and 1 calf. The neighbors across the street knew who they belonged to and walked them home.
