So I have removed the oil pan freely and now the sub-frame is keeping the oil pan from failing complete out, just by a hair. Is there a trick to this?

Good afternoon,

You will need to release the motor mounts and jack up the engine enough to free the oil pan.

I attached the procedure below for you but in most cases, jacking up the motor or lifting it from the top should give it enough clearance to be removed.
