2.5l Oil pan gasket

Recently replaced the rear main seal and oil pan gasket on my 87 4.oL, had a tough time getting the pan out but eventually I succeeded and now am leak free. I am planning on doing the oil pan gasket on my sons 86 2.5L, ax5. Any body know if this oil pan is easyer to get out than the 4.o? thanks.

I have never done a 4.0 but I did do my 84 2.5L and it was not too bad!
