What's the consensus on Rotoflex replacement? While changing out all the fluids this weekend, I took a good, long look at mine: 85,000 miles but it still looks perfect. No cracks or obvious signs of wear/damage. Though I've been carrying a new one in the vehicle for the past 60,000 miles, I've always been of the opinion "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Of course, it would be preferable to replace it lying on a creeper on some nice smooth asphalt than in a mud hole somewhere....
Cheers

yeah, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. It's bad for your teeth.

...replace it while you're nice and warm in the garage - winters a'comin.
Then, throw the replacement in your spares bag and you'll never worry again.
