When replacing my oil pan gasket is there anything I should be concerned about.? Is it a simple job just disconnecting my transfer case and down pipe. I just have to take reverse steps putting everything back together. I'm going to do it anyway just wondering if anyone has sujections.

make sure you don;t mix the bolts

the ones going into the front late are shorter

you put a long one in there
it rub against the timing belt
the timing belt wears out
it snaps
the valves bent


also the turbo lines is a bitch at times

Its a bitch to get back on, its tight down there. Are you using a gasket or RTV?

I figure I should be able to do this no problem if I change my timing belt myself with know special tools. 10,000 kms ago.
