Hey guys so I picked up an 85 gs
And has two problems
Beehive o rings are leaking
Needs new oil pan gasket

After doing some reading up and not being able to get the second nut off the bottom the beehive
I figured I could replace it and go fmoc, are there things that I HAVE to buy like specific oil lines or can I just go heavy duty rubber etc and when it comes to the beehive is there a certain pedestal I have to get?? Links part numbers anything would be helpful
And about the oil pan, I have the ability to change it but not the proper equipment, called Mazdatrix and they said 360$ and I can't afford that at the moment
I know I gotta drop the sub-frame but I don't have a lift etc
I am in the Torrance/ long beach area so if any of you are awesome enough to help either actually replace it or someone that will do it for cheaper PLEASE
I love my 7 but need help!

Someone will chime in with more info,but you do not have to drop the subframe to change an oil pan.

You need to unbolt the motor from cross bar, unbolt to idler arm and raise the motor using a floor jack via bellhousing, of course u need a wood block between the jack and bell housing. Do not use gasket on the oil pan. Instead use an 80 grit sandpaper or similar to make the fnage rough, this will ensilure that copper or red silicone will stick. Btw use 1/4" 10mm socket so u dont over torque the oil pan bolts during assembly. While ur at it, modify the ropr to increase oil pressure. Im live in echo park near dodger stadium. I can do it for a reasonable rate
