EBPV Plug for rod.

Anyone have any instructions on the EBPV delete?
I dont wanna have the wrong crap welded up and be in a hurtin for a new pedestal.

A good way to cut off that housing as well would be another good tip I could use. I'm limited on tools. I guess I could use a grinder with a cutoff wheel. Might get to hot though. =\

Oh, the valve that actuates the hydraulics for the EBPV was what was leaking on me. I'm pretty sure thats what was it. I wouldn't be surprised if the EBPV cylinder was leaking either.

I was looking at it, the seal for the end of the rod isn't the greatest, where people usually plug it up. Good spot for it to leak. I'm sure it was leaking there too. I just didn't see any signs of it.

That one works, the webshots one didnt.

I messaged Gobbstopper though.

The thing I'm worried bout most is welding the actuator hole up.

I dont think i'm going to go as overkill as he did. I dont have the money to pay for the welding.
And I dont have the aluminum pipe. haha.

I didn't have the pipe either but the shop I took it to did. I just wanted to follow his writeup completely cause it turned out so good. Good luck with it.
