    Just wanted to chime in on the stock pan and gasket.

    I've got 14,000 miles on this fluid change with no leaks.

    I upgraded my last truck with the aftermarket aluminum pan due to the extreme heat, but I haven't needed to upgrade this one so I stayed with a stock pan and used FelPro gasket.

    The stock filter is on the valve body so no special filter is needed for any size pan.

    Another graph for fluid.

    I think you want to get the 4wd sump filter...there is a note mentioning it.

    I’d stick with stock Mopar filters.

    You can get a metal screw for your converter filter if you like.

    Depending on where you’re located the thermal bypass could be a good upgrade.

    My gut tells me your in TX.

    So a deep 68RFE pan is not really a deep sump then, just a higher capacity pan?
    If not adding an extended oil pump pickup I'm concerned about starvation.

    Back in my Mopar musclecar days if you put a deep pan on the engine or the Automatic transmission (727) you installed a different oil pump pickup or pickup extension/spacer.
    This extends the oil sump pickup to be the same distance from the bottom of the pan as OEM.

    Example: I put a deep pans on 1970 383 with 727 and it called for an extended sump pickup for the engine and filter mount extension for the trans..
    Modern day (kindof) added a deep oil pan to 1995 LT1 (manual trans) it calls for an extended oil pump pickup.

    I would recommend keeping track of how much fluid you empty out as your baseline.
