    You would have to go to a rack type front steering set up to use a rear sump pan.

    In my own experience, which is not vast, the rear sump pans tend to have dipstick holes. With front sump pans, the dipstick normally enters thru the timing cover. Make sure you check.

    So that's where all those pans ended up! I've only seen one here.

    I'm not as full of facts as you are. I'm just stating what I have noticed in my little world.

    :rolleyes:No need to be sarcastic either, I was just stating what I've found in my little world too. When i tried to find one, I only found one and the guy wanted an arm and a leg for it. These are what you need to put a pre roller block in a Ranger.
