Is the transmission pan on a Lightning the "deep" pan listed or the "standard" pan listed in parts book? The drop of the pickup and filter are different between the two. I am not familiar with the depth of the standard two wheel drive pan vs the 4 wheel drive pan. One would think the Lightning would have the deeper pan. The 2 WD holds 15.9qts and the other pan holds 16.4 qts.

 

I hate to break it to you, but from the factory the gen 2 lightnings had the two wheel drive pan

now the Gen 1’s, I’m not sure about so when you figure out what Lightning year range you’re talking about we can assist you farther

 

01 is Gen 2, isn't it?

 

yes sir
