Realized the other day that I bought a truck without a dipstick.

I checked the dealer and they wanted $63.63 for it!!!

Seems like I remember someone posting a website that had an extensive list of dealer parts available direct at a reasonable price, does anyone have that website address?

Would anyone have a dipstick laying around they don't need?

 

Didnt even check the oil, before you bought it??

 

Oops. wonder how long ot ran with no dipstick? Ouch

 

Try Newdodgeparts.com.

 

Thanks mrwaters, I checked there, no luck...

Click on the OEM Catalog tab at the top of the page, you should be able to find it in there. If not, call them. They sell to the public at net - your local dealer charges list if he's anything like mine.

edit: You have to look in the "collision" section of the catalog for some wierd reason, but it's there and it's really cheap.

 

Kinda tough with no dipstick?

 

are you sure the dipstick is mising or just the "T" handle?

 

Just shine a flaslight down in it and look for oil

 

try cummins. The dipstick on these trucks is a cummins part. Our local dealer has to order them from cummins when replacement is necessary.

Dealer price, $92.65 CDN + 7%

Cummins dealer price $35.22 Cdn + 7% tax. do the math, and Cummins wins again. UGH
