Don't waste your time. You can get the crank seal by itself. The timing cover seal is no longer offered. All you can do is use BLACK RTV sealant for your timing cover.

I paid about $50 or so for a "timing cover" gasket kit and there was no timing cover gasket! :banghead: It was an expensive crank seal....

Well Ive never seen a legitmate kdp kit for under and $100 and you say you got a kit somewhere for $50 sounds like there wasnt some fine print or you didnt see it. Where did you order yours from?-Jordan-

This is not about the KDP. This is about the crank and timing cover seal. He is not doing a KDP fix. That is a totally different beast than what is being covered here.

I know but the kit comes with all of that, but you are right BD kits dont come with the timing cover gasket just the rtv now, but the bad thing is the price didnt change when that happened!-Jordan-

Really? I bought one a year ago when I did my motor swap, and I bought one again a month ago when I did my cam. I go to my local Cummins dealer, Regional International. They've had to get them in both times. If you need, I'm sure I can pull receipts and get part numbers for you.

Eh, well, I have been told numerous times by people on CF. I also went into the local O'reilly's and never got a timing cover gasket in this "timing cover" kit. It was a Fel-pro kit, btw. Me and the guy both thought it was odd that it did not come with the timing cover gasket, yet it was labeled for just that reason. :whistle:Maybe I took it too far by saying they are no longer made. Or maybe you are getting yours pulled from stock.
