Why are you looking to replace it?

My first pan was an F-body. It cracked after contacting the front diff when I hit a big dip in the road. (OME 2.5, Landtank 2.5" plates)

For castor correction I'm using the Landtank 2.5" plates. Selkirk/Land Cruiser Shop recommends using the F-body pan and at least a 2.5" lift.

Do all the oil pan holes line up with your block? I'm running the H3 Alpha/Colorado pan with my LM4 and not all the holes line up. With the LCS motor mounts and OME 2.5" lift, the pan clears the front diff easily but will contact the tie rod at full static compression(hangs lower than F-body...

You could find a junkyard Toyota pump but get a new gasket to fit it to the tank. You’d have to splice the new connector though. Get the pigtail from the donor car.

Finished installing the H3 pan today. It wasn't the final solution I was hoping it would be but I'm going to have to run with it for now. There is now plenty of diff clearance at full compression; even enough for lateral movement that may happen with bushing flex. However, the H3 pan is...

I don’t unfortunately. I ordered an eBay copy kit.

I finally bought the oil pan used on LH8 V8 equipped 4wd Hummer H3 Alphas and Colorados. The pan looks like it will clear the driveline at stock height. Before removing the 302-1 style pan, I removed the front springs to test driveline clearance. The front diff hits the oil pan before the...

GM part number 12624621 Oil Pan looks like it might be a good alternative to the holley 302-4 for front diff clearance.

@GearGeek @cruisermatt Any reason the three pieces of the Mark's adapter couldn't be TIG welded together into one unit? It looks like all the bolt holes needed to attach the adapter to the GM Transmission and the Toyota transfer case are accessible from the outside. Also...

I don't think the loose mounts have an appreciable effect on those clearance issues. From my experience with a very similar setup (OME 2.5~3"/ 4L60E / Land Cruiser Shop Mounts) I have the same issues. I got a smaller 2" diameter tubing front driveshaft and it seems to have solved the...

What are you at stock height? Which transmission do you have?

Wow this would have been handy before I bought a whole new skinny front driveshaft. Looks like Pn 24240206 (not confirmed) Good find! @thatcabledude

Donut has a video on youtube about dash flocking. It’s a genuine repair option that looks to be about as laborious as any other repair. Anything easier would be a dash cover of some kind. It’s got a cool rally car look to it.

Working to solve some driveline clearance issues I've been having. Using a 4l60E with Land Cruiser Shop/Selkirk engine mounts requires at least a 2.5" lift to get the driveline to clear both the transmission pan and the engine oil pan. I was hoping I could get away with using only a 2.5" OME...
