Needed! M42 Oil Pan

[thenewguy]

If anyone has an oil pan for an M42 for sale...I need it! Cracked another one today by seatac. =(

I don't have a pan but I will say that if you are low enough to crack multiple pans you really should invest in a skid plate.

I learned after just one, but it cracked the upper and lower while I was away from home, not fun or cheap.

I have one of his skid plates already...hit a huge chunk of something that looked like and was the shape of a starter last time...ripped a bit of the skid plate and shoved the skid plate up into the pan. Banged it out and reinstalled it. This time I hit some sort of man cover right outside the airport. Still broke the pan through the skid plate...

Get a thicker skid plate. If you're cracking pans through a skid plate, that is saying a lot.
Either you're driving style is in need of a change or your skid plate needs to be changed.
It's one or the other.

Or he just needs to raise the car back up

Probably just need to raise the car back up. Lol. Who sells a thicker skid plate? Race skids looks to be the 'strongest' one offered.

...I have the upper pan if you need it.

Was told recently told that Blunt could get these in a reasonable amount of time for pretty dang cheap. When I've busted mine (all 3 times :() I went through Carquest and they were fast in getting me it but it was like $80-$90 bucks.

And no, I refuse to raise my car :)
