Well I fixed my oil leak. It was the oil pump drive seal. Also pulled the upper and lower intake and replaced those gaskets. The top end looks relatively clean for 230xxx. Not too shabby if I do say so myself.

Also replaced my upper a-arm bushings, tie rod ends, and bled the hydraulic clutch.
I'll be replacing the clutch pressure plate, disk, throw out bearing, pilot bushing, and shimming the flywheel on Tuesday!

Loving the progress buddy, I have all the Founders rear suspension pieces and love them. I heard rumors they are making a Torque Arm setup also.... hope its true.

Turns out I didn't fix my oil leak... I still can't figure out where it's coming from.. Oh well. Here's a mileage update tho.

Did you find your leak? Check the rear while you replaced the clutch?
