I had to stare at the gauges for a while... Didn't believe them. Seriously thought changing the filter was a waste of time Going to book it in for a TDCO tomorrow. Thanks to everyone who contributed to my issues in this thread. Couldn't have done this without you guys.

Here's the culprit

Dash confirmed

Ok, Changed the filter with a wix, oil pressure shot right up. Mechanically confirmed

Ok gentlemen, I'm going to try a new filter today, crossing my fingers... Pulled the oil line off the turbo, no change. I'll check the oil cooler lines while under there, I doubt they're the issue though. Once I pull the pan and notice no obvious problems, it's there a way a can verify...

Oil cooler lines are from Leroydiesel.com also, doubt they're the problem. Braided are tough to kink, any way I'll still check them. Gauge was put on the end of the extension hose that is in where the ops normally is. I can get a picture after work, if I remember. Where exactly is this...

Ok, Checked fuses, one blown for interior lights. Not related I'm sure Swapped out my ops with a spare, still 0 psi. Put a mechanical gauge on, still 0 psi. (Sooo glad I bought that ops extension from Leroydiesel.com) My guess is now, I need to pull the front diff and oil pan again...

I dropped the pan, thinking the leak was there. Cleaned it right out. Dropped the oil and coolant. Changed them both. Coolant looked a little rusty. It sounds great, not as loud as before, but I'm sure it will return after I do the TDCO. I'm going to switch the OPS with a spare, get a manual...

Why do you say that?

Tons. 60+psi cold, maybe 45 on the highways. 35 hot idle

Hey, got it all back together. No oil pressure... Please help

The oil leak was pretty bad, leaking a quart in 250 miles. It's a mess underneath, oil everywhere. Had me pretty concerned

I'm guessing it had to have been like that for a while. Could've been weeks or months maybe even years. The way it wore on the cover to me indicates it was loose. Really only wearing on one side, the return side of the chain not the driving side... And it appears that only the inside half of the...

Well... Long story short, Had a fairly bad engine oil leak, couldn't find it, somewhere in the front. Figured it was the pan, dropped it and the front diff. Found the pieces in it, had a small stroke... Cleaned it out, resealed it & bolted it back on. Ironically, the break in the chain was at...
