I dunno, the jeep pan might just drop right in your concord.  what i would do is take a measurement of where the sump starts on the jeep pan then crawl under your car and see if it will clear the front crossmember

Thanks guys.

OK thanks mudkicker, well I guess I can't get a donor from an Eagle then?

Also thanks reverendbill, I'll have a look tomorrow. From a quick look I'd say it ought to clear the cross member. Looks like it would have a little less capacity though.

I guess I could always try to repair the Concord's Pan if all else fails as suggested by vangremlin

cheers!
