F-250 Powerstroke Oil Pan Gasket Replacement

I will tell you this, I just replaced one on an e350 van and the only way to remove the pan is to pull the motor. You can either take the heads off and then pull the motor, or remove the cab. You see, the cross member is welded to the frame and the sump is so deep it won't come out even if you remove the transmission, flywheel and jacking the motor up. It wasn't a very fun job. Anyway good luck on whatever you decide
