I am trying to replace the oil pan gasket. I need to remove the subframe and support the engine. I have a crane, but I am not sure where to attach it to the engine. Any help is greatly appreciated. The Woodward Dream cruise is happening today here in Detroit. What an amazing scene!

Yep. You'll have to remove the subframe. But the front engine mounts are attached to the body. The transmission mounts attach to the subframe. All you need to do is put a jack or come blocks under the transmission to keep the engine from sagging at the rear.

 

Upon further review, I think it can be done without dropping the subframe. The rear pan bolts might be a little hard to get out but there may be enough wiggle room to get them and the oil pan out. You might also get away with taking the two front bolts out of the subframe which would allow it to drop down an inch or so to give you a little more clearance.
