97 tacoma with a 3-1/4" b/d on 18's my oil pan hits

I have a 97 tacoma with a 3-1/4" b/d on 18's with a automatic tranny my motor oil pan is like a 1/4" off the ground i just started to drag the rack and pinion bolts.And im worried about putting a hole in the oil pan. Its SOOOO close to laying flat rocker Did anyone else have this problem?? im thinking of sectioning the oil pan and adding a oil cooler. anyone know another easy way to get it a little lower? the truck still doesnt lay flat frame in the front or middle

z the front!

yeah I have drug through a little of my rack n pinion bolts and the oil pan is starting to hang a little low. As far as sectioning the pan, it will work just make sure you dont take out to much. Bret is right...go ahead and z the front.

and change the tranny crossmember and tank crossmember to raise them off the street if you havent yet.

Now i got a set of 20's SO i deff will have to Z this thing and build a new hood. I liked the look of the stock hood

the tranny member is fine. my gas tank has fell out once. I drug through the strap
