Stuck Oil Pan - 99' JGC 4.7

I have a 99' GC 4.7 4WD with 125,000. How do you take off the oil pan exactly? I got the bolts off and I'm trying to get it out from underneath.
It's stuck and I can't get it out. I'm a mechanic and have been working on mostly older jeeps, 94-98. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Stuck like RTV stuck? Just hammer a thin blade like a puddy knife around it till it breaks loose.

Are you having trouble separating it from the bottom of the block?

A flathead wrapped in a rag has always helped me, esp if the PO used RTV.

No, it's already off. I can't get it out from underneath the rig. Do you know If I have to lift the motor mounts up, or take the y pipe exhaust off?? I don't have the right angle to get it out.
HELP Thanks!
