    You won't have a problem with your dent ! It's not big enough that your oil pick up won't work , so your good just shows how tough your truck is.

    Sorry, when I read oil pan, I assumed engine oil.
    No need to throw rocks at the new guy.

    Never thought about it and never heard or seen anyone attempt to.

    They were both missing the point.
    Doesn't matter what pan it is. Transmission is probably worse.
    A dent is going to change the capacity of said pan. Since these tacos seem so transmission oil sensitive, what you thought was the right amount before, is now too much.

    That little dent probably only displaced about 2 tablespoons.

    Yeah it's more of a Southern thing then back up North. I've heard of it and seen video of it being done but wouldn't mind trying the ones I have there sweeter than most and after first frost their suppose to be better. I can do what is a Muscidine not sure if I spelled that right or not ! But they make some good wine. It grows up here just not well needs more light and water.

    Anyone familiar with the Dobinson MRRs, looking to get some insight, currently running 5100s at max settings but it’s time to get a little taller. Definitely not looking to run kings or fox they are often over tuned for daily/trail use honestly.

    Most of the new trucks came low from the factory so the dent probably got it to proper spec lol

    Relentless Fab hybrid bumper, 2.5” Dobinsons IMS lift, RCI skids and sliders, block heater. Painted FJ Steelies. Was trying to keep it stock, now slowly building for the Wisconsin trails.
    This happened in Tigerton and the truck has been driving just fine. Most likely it isn't hurting anything other than slightly less fluid in the system at the next flush and fill. I was going to get the pan replaced just as a matter of course for long term. Looks like the pan sub assembly is $120 and another $45 for the gasket. Not cheap but not horrible.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    A little percussive maintenance and it will be good as new.

    Got my MRA long travel (on the rear) and IMS (3" lift) up front installed in January. Love them. What are you looking for specifically?
