Hello i had asked a question on a differnt therad but dident wanna steel it anymore so i started a new one it was on the one asking about preformance mods. my questiuon was how a K&N CAI mounts in the ram and i see that it mounts where the aux bat stis so my question is is there a way to mount the air box without losing/relocating the aux bat?

 

The answer to your question is no. The pipe is molded and if you dont set it up with the filter to the left it wont bolt in correctly.

You can see my site and see more pictures as I have done this mod. In your case I would look for a custom set up. Might need to plastic weld or something.

I have the same problem because I need to mount an elerctic air compressor in the truck and I am lacking space.

I just went through your website... VERY NICE MAN!

Where did you get the FilterMag and how much?
What GREAT Idea!

Where did you get the hitch lights?

How did you mount your Light Force beams before the light bar?
Did you drill holes in the bumper... or?
Do you need any special wiring for them?
Do they need a relay because of how much juice they draw?

Again... great website!

Thanks,
DAVE

OMG thats going to take forever to answer all your questions. lol.. You all know I cant spell.

1. Check google for filtermag home page. Im thinking. www.flitermag.com but not sure. If your military you get 30% discount so ask for it. around 70 bucks and get the one with more magnets. did you see my R rated movie of me cutting open the filtermag?

2. Hitchlights from jcwhitney.com

3. The lightforce lights were mounted by me drinking a beer and drilling through the bumper. But - Dont do it! Everytime I opened the hood they got wacked by the hood. I had to re-adjust them. Thus the bar. I plan to get the road armor bumper after the lift so I didnt care about holes. The wiring was not included. I bought the lights and then looked at the size wire they provided and went to the hardware store and bought some. I used a 30 amp relay they pull about 20amps.

Thanks for the kind words. I owe you a cookie...

 

wow nice pics of that K&N installation- you mentioned that the amount of parts surprised you- but was it still kind of easy? and also when you installed the heat shield, does that require any drilling? thanx

 

I installed one on a new body style F-150 (I'M SORRY!!!) and no drilling was required. It uses all the holes that are already in the body.

 

auchually ive been looking at an open elament ither k&n or eddlbrock but i dont know duz anyone have one what do you think and whats the part number
