WIll this mess up the amount of oil drained and that needs to be replace? I believe it's 8.5 quarts with filter right?
Sorry about the trivial question but I want to do this right.
Thanks for your help

Every "drain" will or could be different until you develop a procedure and follow it specifically. Your 6" of lift is going to effect yours I'd think for sure. How much? Don't know. Let it drain for a couple hours. Was it full when you "sticked it cold"? Did you stick it cold? If you haven't if the car is on all fours and "cold" with "no starts' stick it and see where you are before you start.
