well on mine, here is what you have to do. jack the front up as high as you can. then, under the front doors, put jack stands, then slowly let down the front so the axle is just hanging there, not touching the ground. you then have to remove all the bolts on the pan. it was very hard to get the pan off on mine, so be warned. to remove it, you may have to take off the starter(dont forget to disconnect battery just in case.) then, just snake it out. good luck.

If its not lifted like mine, u may need to unbolt the shocks at the bottom it will give you extra room.

just jack it up and put jack stands then lower the front end down. you can disconnect the shocks for more room.
