Flippin thing....... Wore through coming back from AZ. Front of my trailer is peppered in oil spots.

It's a known issue, and I havent addressed it..... dumb.

If you have a 2005 or older Chevy / GMC 4x4.... do it now. The kit is cheap and easy to do.

JB Welded for now, kit ( + new rear housing.... :? ) coming from Merchant Automotive.

Live and Learn....

Are Duramax's the only ones affected?

Any Chevy / GMC 4x4.... 1998 to 2006... something like that.

Basically any New Process/New Venture unit.

In 2007, Chevy / GMC switched suppliers.

You can also get a $50 wear plate , to do it on the cheap....

Thanks. I've got an '03 Sierra... guess I'll be crawling under for a look when things warm up a bit.
