97 KDP Question...kinda urgent
So i installed the KDP tab yesterday on my truck and got to thinking AFTER the job was done about the dowel pin itself. So i didnt see the pin actually, i put the punch into the hole and tapped her a few times and the punch was actually inside the hole about 1/2"-3/4" before contact was made with something solid. I moved the punch around the side walls and nothing seemed tapered etc. But i got to thinking, might the dowel pin have been missing?? How far can the dowel pin be recessed??? I hope i dont have to take this apart again to install a dowel pin...anyone with any info let me know!!!!! Thanks

Yea im sure i could get that punch in about 1/2"-3/4" deep. Man now i have to do this all over again....i should have just checked with a light & mirror!!! There was zero damage to any of the gears or case so it must have dropped right out into the oil pan. Figure i should put a new pin back in there right away or leave it alone for awhile. It probably has been missing for some time????
