    Anyone thinking of selling their RRC?

    I'm looking for a RRC that's in good mechanical shape. Yes, I'm trying to get a good deal, but not trying to screw anyone either. I'm in the San Francsico Bay area and willing to travel a couple of hours in any direction to look at a truck. Please shoot me a PM with any leads.

    Sorry, I did a search on "oil pan" and nothing comes up ??? I did find one oil pan thread but it didn't get into too much detail. This is for a '95 D1 - So I understand that I need to remove the four bolts to drop the pan. Then I need to replace the screen or just clean it. If it's to clean...
