Default Rocker Cover

I have found a rocker cover on the 'bay that I quite fancy, but the guy has listed it as a 4x4 rocker cover?

I thought they were universal?

Am I being st-st-st-stoopid?

The 4x4 covers have a srew type cap fixing where the 2wd has the push and turn. Unless its a small turbo 4x4 cover of course.

cool - nice one.

As per usual with me, things aren't so simple. I have a Bailey breather system fitted and there is a hole drilled in my current rocker cover for the breather pipe.

Can I relocate this pipe, or shall I just reach for the drill....

Best to relocate the pipe so you vent from both sides of the block, breathing from the cam cover isn't the best way.
