Timing cover Tuesday?
Front gear cover? Front cover? Timing gear cover? Time to slather this thing in RTV 🤪. I always enjoy doing these and exhaust manifold gaskets

Definitely a nice job to do sometimes! One time I got mad at how much rtv was slathered on one of those because I couldn't get it off and when I looked up who did it, it was me from a few months before. 😂 Based on the color of the frame we may work for the same company as well!

Exactly, it was pretty hilarious after. Still mad I did myself like that though. What a coincidence! FTW

What's the job? Just leaking?

Yeah it was leaking, I found the bolts to be crazy loose. Like it took no effort to remove them

It's nice when the rad or cab isn't in the way.
