Thread: '00 mustang oil pan\rod bearing

Tweet

A friend of mine asked me if it was possible to roll Rod bearings into his 4.6l.
I know there is a host of other many problems to go along with doing this, crank scoring, rod issues ect. He would just like to be able to drive it for a month or so so he may save up to have it done properly. I'm not sure if I want to attemp it, does anyone know if it is possible to roll bearings in and how big of a pain it is to peel the oil pan off?

exactly...... getting the pan off on that car is a PITA when its still in the vehicle..... but it is doable.... just be careful doing it.... you'll probably have the engine lifted a little and the car jacked up.... thats a good situation for a car falling on you
