that is a very common problem and unless im badly mistaking, if you have the 4 cylinder, you can get a mustang oil pan and section it enough to clear

I have Dream Beams on 2 Rangers, both lay frame on 20's and the beams don't hit the oil pan. That's funny how the same trucks can have different issues, but it happens.

yota clip it. or you ahve to move the motor up. even sectioning the oilpan probably wont solve the problem. my djms busted my cast oil pan and i swapped it for a steel one and it still hit but not as bad. i have the 2.3 also.
