    yea i know that, but you would think the manufacture and aftermarket companies would list the parts for the truck under the right name since it was changed to the F150 7700. if that makes sense lol

    Right gasket FTW !

    I hear those goobs on some "mechanic TV" shows say if any of the
    RTV "silicone" gets into the gears/bearings it really F's things up in there.
