Oil pan
Hey guys I think I spun a bearing and so I was thinking of pulling the oil pan down and seeing if i did or not and I seen the cross member was in the way and I have no idea how to get around that so if anybody could help me out that would be great. It's a 1995 z28

Re: Oil pan
Here's the oil pan removal procedure that I followed:
1) Disconnect the negative battery cable. Remove the air intake duct.
2) Raise the vehicle and support it safely with jackstands.
3) Drain the engine oil into a suitable container.
4) Detach the oil level sensor connector, then remove the sensor.
5) emove the catalytic converter.
6) Remove the exhaust pipe hanger bolt/screw and reposition the pipe.
7) If equipped with an automatic transmission, detach the cooler lines from the clip at the oil pan.
8) Remove the starter motor.
9) If equipped with an automatic transmission, unfasten the converter cover bolts/screws, then remove the cover.
10) Remove the engine mount through bolts/screws.
11) Use a suitable jacking fixture to raise the engine enough to provide sufficient clearance for oil pan removal.
12) If the front crankshaft throw prohibits removal of the pan, turn the crankshaft to position the throw horizontally.
13) Unfasten the oil pan bolts/screws, studs and nuts. If necessary, rotate the crankshaft to reposition the counterweights.
