Hit up a junkyard bro.


Are you talking about the dipstick tube that slides into the oilpan or block?

One from the junkyard will be just as good, and cheaper.

go to a hardware store and get some aluminum tubing of the same size diameter and cut it to the length you need...you may have to bend it a little, though that's your cheapest route.

but i would say hit the junkyard first that way if you find one you'll know it will work

Dude one from the JY will be fine and it wont cost you much of anything. Time is the worst part though, finding the time to go find one
