Any camry owner changed the sump gasket (3SFE)? Im planning of changing mine but it just looks to complex there are two many things in the way like the cross member, which also means i gotta unbolt the front engine mount. Is there a better way??
cheers

dude drive your car up on some ramps, take the cross member out etc and put all nuts and bolts in a bucket..the engine will ballance on the 2 side ones it is fine, MAKE SURE U DRAIN OIL FIRST befor takeing the bolts out..u empty it by taking that huge nut from the bottom out and putting a bucket under it, replace the gasket and screw the sump back in and just reverse evertyhing u did..then put the oil back in and there ya go 
hope this helps
in my oppionion it is safe to take the front one off
good luck
