PITA - Splash Guard Removal
#1

This is a new truck to me so, I'm not familiar with the splash guard application. My '01 did not come with one installed. The PO probably left it in the mud pit.
Trying to pull oil pan last night - How the F do you remove this thing? It appears the axle needs to be dropped.
I was able to shimmy it around and use a socket set to remove the pan but...
It took me longer to "try" to remove the "splash guard" than it did to rip down the top end and remove the heads (which by the way all 20 bolts were finger right. Yup, finger tight).

Note: be sure to lift the chassis - don't compress the suspension. The lift I'm working on is a drive on lift. Figures...
