Who needs KDP jig

I knew that heading would get alot of looks !
With all the threads on the KDP lately it seems there is quite a few people concerned about the dowel, and can't wait to get their hands on the jigs ( if they could be found ).
My truck went out of warrantie about 4000 miles ago, so i have been thinking of doing the fix myself. The jig method looked good for the easy way out, but i was concerened about getting shaveings in the case.
I bought the seal and gasket last weekend, and read the instructions a couple of times, and dove right in to do the washer tab fix.
About four and a half hours later it was a done deal. This is alot easier fix than it sounds.
So i guess what i am trying to say, if you are worried about the KDP, don't wait on a jig that might not show in time. FIX IT !
