I have a borescope so i can snake it around im thinking i can maybe go through the vent hole by the vp gear. I know the 24v trucks arent as common as the 12v for kdp issues but i have heard of a few and i dont wanna chance it.

I asked the same thing a while back, about using a borescope, possibly through the oil fill tube, but the consensus was no, things were too tight to get one in to the point that you could see the dowel pin. Worth a try, though, if you already have the scope. I was planning to get one, if it was feasible.
