JOHN DEERE TRACTORS:
• John Deere 6230/6330/6430/7130/7230 6068 PowerTech 6.8L Diesel (2007-2013)
JOHN DEERE BACKHOE LOADERS:
• John Deere 310J/310K/410J 6068 6.8L Diesel (2007-2015)
IMPORTANT:
This is a ROCKER COVER gasket for the John Deere 6068 PowerTech engine (6.8L 6-cyl). Do NOT confuse with the rocker stand gasket (R524496) or the valve cover gasket — they are different components. The 6068 engine has multiple layers of gaskets in the valve train area and ordering the wrong one is the most common mistake.
Fits 6230/6330/6430/7130/7230 tractors and 310J/310K/410J backhoe loaders. Failure symptoms: oil seeping from the rocker cover area at the top of the engine. When replacing, inspect the rocker cover for warping and clean both mating surfaces thoroughly. If you are already removing the rocker cover, inspect the rocker stand gaskets (R524496) as well — they are accessible once the rocker cover is off, and replacing both at the same time saves labor. Torque bolts per the JD service manual sequence.
⚠️ ROCKER COVER gasket — not rocker stand (R524496). Verify which component is leaking.
