What size is it? It looks doable with a deep drive socket, or am I incorrect? Easier to take off the tire and go at it that way? I believe mine is the cause of my slow oil leak, so I'd like to change it out. Thanks!

I don't know what size it is but you can use a deep socket or a crescent wrench. Removing the tire will give you more

Room to work with. I have a body lift so it makes it easier to access.

 

The valve cover gaskets have a tendency to leak over time. The typical fix is to just tighten the valve cover screws. thought I throw that in for some FYI.

Yea, I have tightend those. Its nothing major, it just seems to be coming from there, like through the unit itself. I had a 25mm on it and it was slightly too big, so off to Sears in the morning to buy a new socket. Thanks for the info.
