Once the differential was out of the way, I had to drop the oil pan down, remove the pickup tube and then I could get the pan the rest of the way out.

Removing the front diff. is the easiest way to remove the oil pan. But I also recall needing to drop the steering linkage (tie-rods and pitman- arm) down off the frame and loosening both left and right side motor mount nuts to allow the engine to be lifted slightly to fully remove the oil pan.

I don't remember messing with the steering linkage. Maybe that would have made it easier had I done so, though.
