You can drill and tap there. If you do it on the truck, load up the drill bit and the tap with grease tp trap as much of the debris as you can.

I put in a Moroso pan and put in weld-in 12 AN bungs. Easy conversion.

mine is in the front on the drivers side, i just filled the motor with like 20 Quarts of oil then drilled so the oil coming out pushed all the shaving out with it

i cant lie its nice to be a foremen at a dealer, ive built all my projects there, just threw a drainer under the truck, used a angle drill and a uni-bit and turn my head, pulled the trigger and presto, a hole and a slight mess, but hea, no shavings in the pan, lol...

I did mine on the drivers side...not as bad as it seems when you are talking about drilling your oil pan.
