We dropped wwff's pan by taking two bolts off the front diff and letting the whole thing pivot down, iirc. He may chime in, and his memory is better than mine. It's a little tight getting at the rear bolts, and a couple of the fronts, and they are tiny little buggers that will break on you in an heartbeat, too, just ask WWFF. I provided the arm force, he supplied the weak bolt...

When you have the bugger off, make sure you whang the area around the bolt holes flat, or a little crowned away from gasket surface of the pan. THe bolts pull it the other way, and if you don't counter whang 'em, they can cause a leak, especially without a real gasket. BTW, I think there's a felpro real gasket that fits, too.
