Need oil pan for Pajero 4M40

Hi Guys,
Just swapping in a L400 4M40 block into my Pajero. Swapping over the accessories I ran into a couple of problems. One I will solve by drilling a hole in the block (for the dipstick). The second is the oil pan. They are different. Mine is hooped. Does someone have an oil pan kicking around for a Pajero 2.8 4M40? Need it ASAP.
Thanks,
Gerry

Where abouts are you? I can probably source one for you from my parts supplier, they have a couple pajero's for parts, and have changed a few of the 2.8L's, but if you are closer to BC than I am, it may be just as easy for you to contact them and check. I only have the l400, l300, and 2.5lpajero pans kicking around here.

Hi jason,
I'm in Calgary. I called Rising sun and they do not have one. Have a call in to CCAuto to see. Just waiting to hear back. If you have another suggestion I would love to hear.
Thanks,
Gerry

We do have a 4M40 engine, which is still in good running condition pajero2800cc.
We do not sell oil pan assy separately even if we part out later.
Try CC autos as my staff suggested on the phone.
If not successful, you may get a new assy from Mitsubishi Japan.
Good luck,
Steven

Will the oil pan from your old 2.8 not fit onto the new 2.8? I haven't swapped an engine from an l400 into a pajero, so I'm curious as to why you can't just use the old one. And sorry, I don't have any other suggestions for suppliers.

My original is hooped. Big hole in it from the connecting rod. I need a replacement.

weld it up? I assume it is just stamped steel....

Sorry, when you said that in the original post, I thought it was a misprint and you meant humped. Getting it welded might be your quickest and most economical solution.

Based on the condition, it is not a good candidate for welding.

At this point I am sending emails to some UK wreckers to get one shipped in. Least expensive and quickest option to get a replacement
