Oil Pan Removal - 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 4wd, LS

[MONGOOSEST3]

I would like to know if this is true The mechanic that just worked on my Chevy Silverado 2002 indicated that it took 4 hours to remove the oil pan and replace the oil pan gasket because he had a disconnect the differential in the front when I look underneath all the four-wheel drive differential stuff is off to the left or am I mistaken. I do not see how it took 4 hours. Does it need to be disconnected and does it take 4 hours to do. Seemed awful high to me

Yes it will be disconnected.

 

For your viewing pleasure.
