    Hi all,
    I'm brand new here. Looking for some Toyota expert knowledge, here on the board. I did some google searching and couldn't find a solid answer with which I was comfortable. Found a couple yes and a couple no results. I'm hoping someone (or two) can give me a definitive answer: can the upper oil pan be completely removed with the engine in place in a 2005 XRunner pick up? 1GR-FE 6-cyl. It looks to me that it cannot be removed without, at least, lifting up the engine a few inches. The 2 cross members in the way are welded to the frame and are not removable. Bolt access looks like it could be a little iffy but I think I can adequately access them for removal and then a torqued installation. Has anyone on here actually done this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Not trying to be a pest/troll but hoping someone will chime in. Have a potential side job. This is the make or break detail.
