had issues of just scraping oil filter with draglink when stuffing passenger side. could have maybe gotten away with doing nothing.wanted piece of mind so options were adjusting bump stop(would lose an inch of travel) maybe different pitman arm,angled drag link or oil filter relocate. i am happy with how everything else is working out so i chose to move the oil filter.(was the cheepest option also) this can be mounted horizontal or vertical. placed on top of framerail. bin driving for 2 weeks now worked out great and no issues at all and even seems to run a little cooler[imhttp://i1133.photob
no issues of hitting draglink now

a few things i have bin working on the last few months: finally got around to installing kc 100 watt roof lights

gas can mount:[img]







derale trans pan. really like this pan.metal pan that holds another quart or so and has cooling tubes that
run through the pan and air travels in these. also has a temp sender on pan and drain plug.



temp gauge
purple cranium diff protectors:

mounted the abbots speedo corrector. 12v sw supply and neg batt gnd. then wired after pcm.

things noted about T6:hit every branch that hung down banging up rack and lights. steering was really hard going slow in 4 wheel drive and recently broke ps pump shaft. Solution took off rack temporarily. (got hold of a oil pan to play with) once thats done i can lower truck a few inches. also got with PSC and they have a max flow upgraded pump that bolts right on. you can use either pully stock or ext, both press on psc pump.pressing on pully(went with stock for now)pump mounted up

[dirty anton]

made a bracket to hold res, and it bolts to fender well and filter box bolt.]res is above pump and out of the way of oil and trans dip sticks.

ps fluid cooler.mounted under rad guard. kept the stock cooler.(ran new one after then returns to res)drilled out holes in rad guard for air flow.

[dirty anton]

1.75 redneck ram and hoses welded to axle and tie rod.gear box and were hoses are tapped in.also ran a whole new high pressure hose to in of gear box

so far so good! took a while to get air out of system (important to do before you drive) then did some trails by house and 4 wheel drive is way easier to steer along with being less stressful on frame and gear box. bump steer is gone both on and off road and overall feels more smoothe and solid.
