What % of these trucks have rocker arm issues?

Just curious of how big of a issue this is for the 6.4. So far at 100k no issues for me.

I don't think it's very high. It does happen, but I'd imagine under 5%...

Ok then not nearly as bad as I thought. There is a local mechanic near me that says he's had to work on tons of them. Starting to think he's full of %?£¥

I would give it more than 5%. I wouldn't call it an epidemic, but a lot of trucks will have issues, specifically ones where maintenance is neglected.
