    Hi everyone, I am trying to remove the top oil pan sub assembly from my 2009 Toyota Tacoma Pre-Runner but I am having trouble with the clearance since the power steering link is in the way. Is there a way to make more clearance? Will removing the two bolts securing it to the cross frame give me the clearance that I need and will it cause me any problems? Any advice or experience is greatly appreciated. Thank you
