Tips for installing Stock Oil Pickup Tube

[Divenut]

Hi,

Picked up a stock oil pan to replace the cracked/leaking deep pan on my 340. I need to swap the long pick-up tube with the new stock length one. Looks like it just screws out/in, but appears that the windage tray etc will prevent me from backing it out? Any tricks to doing this? Anything I need to watch out for? (Kinda want to make sure I have an idea what I need to do before I start cranking on stuff.). Thanks as always for helping me get my first Mopar back on the road.

You need to take the oil pump off.

Thanks for the quick reply 1968FormulaS340. Any quirky things I should know before tackling it, or is it pretty much a bolt off, bolt on deal.

Thanks again,
Pat
