how do you pull the oil pan safely, and fast

hey guys,

gonna weld my pick up on because i knock it off changing the gasket!!!

i have th headers off and starter out... oil pan is not bolted on.

i was thinking of just releasing the motor mounts and then pulling the engine up or jacking it up on the crank.

teh car is in teh air with some stands so.... i donno... i dont wanna drop teh k member because.... wont that put me out of alignment on steering or something like that?

Just jack the front of the motor 2-3 inches. It will slide out.
