How do you get the Oil Pan off to replace the gasket on This 4 wheel drive without pulling the engine?

From what I’m seeing, on both 5.0 and 5.8 engine, full size Bronco, requires loosening engine/transmission mounts & raising the engine/transmission , but doesn’t require engine removal. Seems you may have to remove/disconnect other stuff too, an intake manifold, disconnect exhaust, trans oil cooler, other misc connections.

It may be the case that if this job is done at an experienced shop, they know its just easier and faster to remove the engine.
