kdp help

I took the case off to do the fix and somethings not right. from the bolt to the dowel pin there is a 1/4 inch rise in the surface. Basicly the bolt is set farther back towards the cylinder that the dowel pin hole. Is this the new case or do i have to make my own washer to cover it?

Nope. That's pretty odd. I'll still keep doing '98's and '99's. I no longer do '00 trucks, since I am finding some '99's with the new case.

That's why I'm not too worried about my 2000.

Yep I got it used. It was a retired fellows he traded it on a new one and the dealer took it to manhiem auto auction and my buddy picked it up and we ran it at his corp for a while to make shure there werent any problems, then i took it for myself. Nothing was ever done to the drivetrain or such. all service was documented only had 49k grage kept till i got it haha.

So chances that the KDP already fell out, cracked the case, and got a new case are pretty slim then.
