Question 2wd oil dip stick tube?

Any one got one for sale? Can find one anywhere.
Thanks.

It's just that a bit of tube, try local metal merchants, the wall thickness might be the problem, so long as long enough you can always cut the length down.

Caution, here, make sure the total length of the inserted dipstick is the same on both, as 4wd may be a bit longer/shorter, to get a nice snug fit place tube end in a vice and make SLIGHTLY oval by squeezing slightly, then after tapping in with some decent sealer problem over.
