Rocker box

[Wilder]

How do I find a video walking me through changing rocker box gaskets on my 117 s&s?

Google it. Has to be a video or 2 on YouTube. But it’s pretty straightforward.

What year is your bike? 05 and 06 had TP rocker boxes instead of S&S.

Did not know that. Will have to check my parts. Do you know how I could watch a video on changing?

I have but the only thing I can get to pop up is Harley-Davidson.

Same thing. Post a pic of your rocker covers

Awesome ty. I seen a video of someone doing it on a s&s couple years ago and I remember a couple specific things that I wanted to refresh my memory on but I know I can do it thanks for your help buddy. I'm a new member, I think I'm going to like this place. LOL.

The TP boxes have 4 bolts in the lid. S&S have 6. If you have TP boxes, many times it's just the lid seal leaking. Look closely to see if its leaking from the lid or the base. If it's the lid seal, you can buy just those from Curtis at wildsteedworx.com. You can change a lid seal in 10 minutes or so.

I have four bolt, I did buy the parts directly from big dog so I suspect it would be the right ones. And it's not my lid that's leaking it's the bottom base. Do you know what would be the easiest way for me to get torque specs for this project?

It's in the service manual. Can someone point him to an 05 or 06 service manual link? I think Doug @bdm7250 has them.
I found it. Here is the link.
