Metal oil pan and drain plug?

[SilverBolt]

does anyone know how hard it is to remove/replace the oil pan? I'd rather upgrade to an aluminum pan and do it myself.

I do my own oil changes but haven't paid much attention to the pan mounting bolts. I will explore doing this myself. I don't recall much being in the way.

It would be a huge help that if someone with a later 2018 used their VIN on Tasca to get the pick up tube P/N. Anything else associated with the pan for that matter.

Grab a VIN off any that are for sale at the dealers currently. That will get you what you need.

My pan arrived yesterday. Now just need to make time to play with it once I figure out the other parts needed.

Looks like at very least it is a pickup tube and seal that is different.

Not sure if you'd need to replace the pump as well.




Also- Used the Vin provided above. Here's what I'd imagine you'll need for the swap.

I just changed my oil yesterday and Plastic it was. I was hopeing to see metal my build date was 2/16/18. Fingers crossed no issues in the future.

That is a huge help. Thank you. I just got back in town. Will be ordering some parts this week. Getting close for an oil change so I should be able to tackle this in the next couple of weeks.
