Default 85 300 6cyl Engine Question

Hi, I have a 1985 F150 with the 300 6 cyl, 274K miles; needs new rod bearings. Anyone know if I can drop that pan without lifting the engine? It looks kinda tight.

It's doable I am no mechanic but I did it on my 85 f150.

Thanks Gearsmash; I'll be giving it a shot after the flood waters go down (am in the Fargo area).
