GotMINI Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 Okay, long story short ! I am looking for some help. I am tired of paying the $75-$90 an hour labor fees ! I need to change my Oil Pan Gasket. I have had All Gaskets, and "O" Rings replaced, wth the one exception, my Oil Pan Gasket! Wouldn't ya know it, it started to leak a little a couple of days ago. I am 1st looking to see if anyone out there has access to either a lift, or jacks so I can do this. 2ndly, if there is anyone out there who would be inclined to give me a hand ? 1-2 individuals who have the experience in changing out their"s, or a friends. I will supply payment in the form of: I will supply the Food, and Beverages needed, and I will also be available at anytime, (within reason, you ain't calling me at 3:45 am because you need a push!) No, I would make myself available anytime you need to do some work to your car. I have turned many wrenches in my day ! Come On!!! It will be a Fun day out ! I have pretty much all the tools needed with the exception of a Torque Wrench. And a way to get the car off the ground ! If your interested, and you can help me out. Let me know, PM me or whatever. Thanks, Geno!
cmcveay Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 Geno, I can provide the place, jacks, jackstands, torque wrench and various other tools if needed. You could give R53Ricky a shout to see if he'd mind helping you out as he's been down a very similar path. Unfortunately, this weekend is out as we have the picnic on Saturday and I'm going to be out for a photo shoot on Sunday. Otherwise, I'm sure we can work something out.

GotMINI Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Posted August 22, 2012 Craig that sounds great, I will contact him. Yes, this weekend I figured is not a good one. I have to work anyways. Maybe next weekend. I'll shout out to Ricky and see. Geno !

Those bolts in the exhuast system get so rusty they end up shearing off the studs and that would have left you with a very loud exhaust on the way home. 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold
rickyr53 Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 Replied to the message Craig. I´d be willing to help the both of you out with the oil pan gasket and the SS kit but i am in Bolivia till the 25th so it would have to wait till then, sorry. 68wmcs Get new studs for your exhaust. I bent and snapped them when i changed mine out.
