Tighten oil pan bolts - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

KGV · 01-13-2013

Hi,

I have a slight oil leak, and I want to tighten all of the oil pan bolts. I found a thread that mentions that you need to remove the 'k' brackets in order to get to the front bolts.

I am thinking of buying two of the Race Ramp wheel cribs that will raise the car 12". Is this enough clearance to allow the brackets to be removed and get a torque wrench under the car to tighten the bolts?

Will the brackets come off easily, or will they be difficult?

Thanks,

Ken
