<< Something with 15000-25000 miles would be great in a 5.9. Why can't the
 5.9 oil pan be used? A couple hundred bucks??? MUCH cheaper than a
 rebuild!!! Looks like I need to sell my Bronco quick, so I can get a 5.9!!!

Brian, My 5.9 had about 12000 on it when I installe it!! It was just broke
in!
The oil pan on my 5.9 was out of a B-Van, or full size van which has a deep
pan that doesnt have to go around the sway bar thats on the Dak!!
The couple hundred bucks was a guess, call around and price em. Your chances
are better with an older van than a Ram!! Not to many Rams in the yards from
what I can see.
