was your oil pan cast?

DJM Dream beams should solve the problem. You probably destroyed the stockers by cutting them so your goin to need new ones anyways. If the dream beam still hits, try to find a new oilpan thats real steel, not cast or pot metal.

I made up my mind I'm just gonna get my boy to cut me something I designed out on the water jet and basically rebuild or notch the beam around the oil pan and while im at it set everything up to lay 20's I'll take pics and post em on here or maybe even do a how to
