1985 southwind oil dipstick tube

I bought a 1985 Fleetwood southwind motor home and the tube for the oil dipstick tube - does anyone know where I can buy another one?

  • I just bought a standard short one from a speed shop and pull the engine cover when I need to check the oil, because the fill is under the cover as well. This engine is designed to consume oil, so I'm usually topping it off every time I check it.
  • What's wrong with it? Broken or cracked it can be welded or brazed.

    Also check online for RV salvage yards.
  • Just changed mine on a 454 vortec P30 chassis.

    Had to get it from workhorse 125$

    MH deep stick are much longer than truck versions.
  • take it off and take it up to NAPA. They carry lots of parts for med and heavy duty chassis and can match it up
