Title: Ride Height Valve Cover
Post by: jor on April 17, 2013, 10:01:45 pm
All three of the stock ride height valve filters were gone on my rig. In searching this topic I see there are a number of novel approaches to this common issue. Me, I drilled holes in large diameter rubber chair leg caps (or whatever you call them), inserted some air filter material, popped them on the valves and secured them with hose clamps.

Now that's creative!  ^.^d

We just bought some from FindItParts.com since we're missing at least one

RN10JE-HALDEX MIDLAND-RN10JE - Exhaust Cover Kit (http://www.finditparts.com/products/370160/haldex-rn10je)

ETA - Napa has 'em, too  http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/CatalogItemDetail.aspx?R=MBIRN10JE_0215344940 (http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/CatalogItemDetail.aspx?R=MBIRN10JE_0215344940)

I also used the chair/crutch tips. Drilled several holes in the end. Put in cotton stuffing from pill bottles. Seemed secure, so I didn't use hose clamps. Guess I should check to see if they are still there.

That is pretty much what I did on mine. They are still holding without the hose clamps.

Just installed 3 RN10JE Haldex cover kits form the local truck parts store. They come with the cover and felt filter, turn the covers inside out then roll them on the valve.

I found both NAPA and FinditParts out of stock.  Both said Haldex is out and is starting a production run in Mexico.  How many of you ordered all at once.  What power we have!

I didn't even check for availability. I thought they were not available. Thanks.
