Hello everybody, Just curious as to what everyone does about our oil pan gaskets for RT4WD . last time I replaced my motor I replaced my gasket but for some dumb reason I just didn't seal the gasket like I was supposed to its leaked a little not bad but now its kind of rediculous and I really need to replace it again but I would very much not want to have to pull the motor again... any way . if anyone has any tips or tricks lmk me and my friend have discussed maybe just removing the transfer case but that too doesn't sound too promising.

    pull the header, driveshaft, and transfer case and you should be clear. im still not sure if its more or less of a pain than yanking the motor

    Yeah it is the transfer case that is a pain and some people say they can only get it part way off.
    There is a thread describing how to do it properly but I cannot find it. I remember the thread because a lot of RT owners were excited about it.

    I've just injured my shoulder back on forth of july and my mobility is limited and I really cant strain much so I'd like to find a easier way. This is literally the biggest flaw in design for this car IMHO lol fuckin' oil pans
