Click to expand... no, I used it to trace out onto my other strap. I made my own 90* oil filter out of the stock exploder stuff. I pulled the through bolt out of the bolt that holes the cooler onto the 90* fitting. Cut the threaded/flanged ends off, put the allen key through to make sure they were perfectly straight, and welded them together. Its not a ballistic peice, but I had an extra skull and they look cool. Finished battery tray/top. aluminum cover for the 5spd hole. crawlbox shifter modified, and Winters Rock-gate installed, on the trans side as well.
