heavy duty sump guard??
if your talking about the piece of crappy plastic that hangs down.. then its easy to remove.. and i believe it is possible to do oil change with it still there.. just requires more jacking from memory..

If it's similar to my ute there will be a hole to allow for oil changes. Mine is attached by 4 bolts, 2 at the crossmember and 2 at the radiator support panel.
