    Fair enough. I’m thinking I’ll feel the same. Maybe someday I’ll splurge on the $2000 total chaos stock length LCA to pair with some nice King’s up front. That would make maintenance a breeze

    I did my valve cover gaskets and intake manifold gasket a couple months ago and noticed the p.side was seeping a little bit so i ordered another 45$ gasket and took my time.20190704_065801.jpg 20190704_080335.jpg 20190704_080344.jpg 20190704_080354.jpg 20190704_080402_HDR.jpg
    When these were done before i kinda rushed the p.side. i dis an extra ocd job on brakleening the cylinder head of oil and the valve cover. This last pic is where is was seeping. Im HOPING the rtv just didnt set right or i had dirty hands putting things back together.

    Now its personal every one... You've seen mud thirstys INSIDES;)

    Did the differential breather mod. Easy to do. If need be can adjust to give an additional 3-4” of slack at diff.
