I accidentally stripped the threads on the upper bearing lid where the oil dipstick goes on my DP-S drive . Before buying a new lid, I'll try to repair with a Helicoil.
Now, does anyone know the thread size of the oil dipstick? My best guess is 1/2-13, but before buying the Helicoil kit I need to be 100% sure. I have searched the net, but no luck!
If I have to buy a new lid (VP-original)- do I have to re-shim, or can I simply replace with the new one?
TKS!!
