Need some info
I am planning to replace upper and lower oil
Pan gaskets and engine mounts when it gets warm. I read that to do that job the subframe needs to be dropped and the engine raised up. I did some searched on the net but could not find details how to perform the job. I do not have lift but have engine host and jack lifts and jack stands. Is here someone who did it and could give more info? Anything else needs to be removed? How easy it gonna be. How many hours will be needed to do it by shop and how much, if I have to losen up the control arms do I have to align the car again.? Thanks

Thanks they are my last resort. I want to do it myself and gain experience and knowledge as I have enough time and tools in my hand, except the lift. Oil pan gaskets are the only leaky areas as I took care of all others myself.
