Just wondering if it can be done with the intake manifold on. When I pulled it out I could not get the oil pan to clear diff because intake would hit the fire wall. I did not spend any time trying to make it work just yanked the manifold. I would like to keep the intake on so if it can be done with some patients would rather go that route. Or possibly drop the diff if its easy enough. Let me know your method. Thanks.

 

I removed mine 2009.

 

Yes, you just may have to rock the engine a bit to clear the firewall if you dont remove the front crossmember.
