4x4 Oil Dipstick
I recently swapped a 72 350 from a 2wd into my K20. I am using stock ramhorns and the dipstick seemed to be an awkward fit when I was test fitting the exhaust. So I was curious, was there a oil dipstick tube specific for 4wd's?

Yes, there is, but be prepared, they fetch close to $100.

Re: 4x4 Oil Dipstick
mines an 86 K10, and when I installed my ram horns, i had no problems, it had the log style from stock. What year did they change from drvs to pass dipstick....this may be why
