pretty cool eh jason, ya didn't even notice, I already got into an argument with another guy in a jeep with a 6" lift and 35" tires, he couldn't believe I only had a 2.5" lift and my fender are taller than his up front with 34" tires. I had to physicly point out the difference...


lol, i'd love to hack up yours too, theres always a possibility for getting out that way, lately I've been concentrating on staying close to home, things are gitting kinda dry out here so I may spread the wings a litte...

I never thought to put the filter directly on the t-body, I just got a k"&n that fits the stock tube.

more pics... of some rear triming.. it'll be sitting just like that for a week at least...





I took it right up to the spot welds and am planning on bending t up against the bottom of the fender well.



I'll prolly move the canister also for more room..

lol sorry jason I couldn't resist.

Lol no if you visited I woldn't make you work.

I've got so many balls in the air I just can't make it back around to the jeep. I want to do some weather proofing before getting this done. They dumped all the salt on the roads that they had for the entire year and ran out. Davenport even quit salting because they couldn't get anymore.

So with the hopes of still having a jeep after winter. I need to drop two of my tcase mount bolts and get the icky out of my frame. Paint the bottom and seal my rocker gaurds. Repaint everything I can spray at. A good product for all of you if you want a good sealant type paint is john deere blitz black. If you put the effort into the prep you will have a hard time getting it off even when you want too.  
I break stuff.

Wish I would have thought of this before. It would be a much easier modification on a CJ.

As for the oil less filter if you could adapt it a good choice would be Edelbrock Pro Flow 1000.
