    hey guys I'm trying to replace my valve cover gaskets and I'm stumped on how to remove the valve cover I've already removed the air box and intake manifold but I can't seem to figure out how to get the cover off! All answers welcome thanks

    First sell the truck and buy 1st gen. Then ask you question here again :hattip:. Or you may ask it on 2nd gen forum.

    wait.

    Why are you trying to remove the valve cover on a 2014? Is it leaking? ... The truck is three years old :confused:

    it doesn't have the factory warranty?

    It's only a three year old truck, has the warranty expired?

    Yeah a three year old truck shouldn't be leaking.

    Is it a seep or a leak? You might be better off just leaving it alone.

    Your answers might be differant here than on the 2nd gen forum. The newest truck on here is going to be 13 years old. Our maintenance attitude might be skewed a bit. At least mine is.
