Oil pickup tube location in oil pan?

[Arkapigdiesel]

I'm going to be punching a hole in my oil pan tomorrow for a self tapping hollow bolt, but before doing so I wanted to find out where the oil pickup tube is located at. Need to make sure I don't punch a hole and have the pickup tube as an obstruction behind the hole. TIA.

I don't know the answer to your question, but you can download a service manual from www.hemitruckclub.com



I would think the answer would be in there.

the pick up tube starts at the front of the motor, it runs down the passenger side of the pan next to the pan bolts, then turns down at the back of the motor, and then is running along the bottom at the very back of the pan.



hope this helps
