Damn i hope you can resolve the problem with the windshield

Thanks Carlitos.

It will get resolved one way or another.

I swear I have the exact same crack on my windshield. Even the way it curves down and just just stops. But up here in this dirty part of the country with oil field trucks on all the roadways its just something you cannot get around unfortunately, especially with a DD.

I've been chasing an oil leak for a while. I replaced the old fittings and hose with new Russell Performance hose and fittings thinking a better quality fittings would be the answer. I still have a leak, always the same spot. I have used three new fittings trying to fix the leak and just today lengthened the hose and used two new fitting on each end as a just in case. Still leaking.

It leaks at the swivel, NOT at the threads.

Suggestions?

Top one. It's hard to see but there is a drip of oil there.

jwick · 08-16-2014, 02:07 PM

Mines the bottom one. I was thinking the sway bar was making contact.

No contact 100% sure of that.

I'm surprised at the amount of trouble with these. knocking on wood.

jwick · 08-16-2014, 03:08 PM

I think the sway bar hits the hose not the fitting

Nope, I have mine against the block, also wire tied to the oil pan.

GaleForce · 08-16-2014, 03:16 PM

Do you guys know if the threads on the oil filter relocation block are NPT?
