    Diluted motor oil

    Welldigger, you are one cool dude, you really treat people right and it will always come back to you in spades. I know, it's often that I tell guys how to avoid buying my expensive parts by taking another good way out to fix a problem, and you know what? They always say thanks. JT out

    Bobber bed to cab gap
