I didn't have access to a lift so i bough some 4x4 wood and 2x10 and made some blocks so i can lift my car onto. Put jack stands for extra bracing at the jack points and kept my jack there for extra extra support lol.

Removed the under shields.
Removed bracket (he showed)
drained and removed pan
cleaned up and installed new pan
filled and followed ISTA

I also changed front and rear differential fluids while i had it lifted. Oh and oil, cabin filters, air filter.

I drove a few days and lifted it back up to make sure it was topped again. which i learned wasn't needed.

In total.
wood and screws- $18
differential and new plus- 38
transmission fluid kit- 165
Total 221

oil- 69
cabin filter- 27
air filter- 46
coolant- 8

i ordered my stuff through FCP Euro. Great company fast and easy. Also takes returns so I get credit back for next round.
Any picks of the blocks you made?

Id like to make a pair to compliment my jack stands.
