Is there anything else that needs doing as part of this job that needs parts in advance?
How is your oil pan gasket?? Seems like a good time to replace it.

Maybe engine mounts also? But think about that carefully. On my '05 3.0, I am replacing my front subframe, and live in a rusty climate. I snapped 3/4 of the bolts holding the engine mounts in. If I wasn't replacing both the subframe and engine mounts and bolts, I would be in a world of suck....
