Any idea when any of our supporting vedors will be stocking these? Summit shows the oil pans for $380; but their back ordered.

mine i dont think is that big, but it works... It's even got a drain plug so it works. its a 4x4 trans pan off an F250 i think and it holds like 2 more quarts of tranny fluid...
they're like $50 or so threw a vender and the filter is like $20 or so... I dont know what ya get for $380 that i didnt get with mine.

I would be really worried about ground clearance.

I have a canton oil pan and windage tray on my truck and there is plenty of ground clearance. The hard part is attaching the torque converter.

We have rear sump pans, and when you go with a larger sump, it's harder to access the converter bolts.

I was also wondering about ground clearance. However, I like the fact that the drain plugs are on the sides where they're less likely to get sheared off.
