If all else fails, you'll need to pick up a bolt-out.

for fun check the a/c compressor when mine went bad i thought it was my engine it stated to sound like a jack hammer, got it hom and the next day went out and fired it up and it was a bad compessor

When you get all of your oil pan bolts out, don't forget to rotate the pass side CV shaft so you have room to lower the pan. The inner CV joint and corner of the oil pan make for a tight fit. Turn the shaft, and WALA! The pan comes down.

I don't know if this was mentioned, but here's a good guide for ya.
