[AT] dropping a WD oil pan

[D. Day]

I need to replace the gasket on the WD oil pan, and for the life of me, 
cannot get it out from under the frame.  Regardless of how I angle it, it's 
maybe a 16th of an inch too long to fit between the bottom lip of the 
flywheel housing and the frame bracket that supports the front of the 
engine.  I would be very hesitant to move the front engine support bracket.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
