oil filter

[Mcktiger74cj5]

hello,
can you tell me what the reasoning for relocating the oil filter?im getting close to putting the knew 360 together. i will be putting this in my 74 cj5. is this a good idea. thanks

It does a couple of important things.


1. Eliminates the bottle necks in the stock oil filter adaptor
2. Allows better filter choices
3. Eliminates the oil filter bypass
4. Allows you to add a accumulator, pre luber, oil cooler or any other oil modification. :t:

less of a mess when changing the filter (stock drops oil on diff, unavoidable)
less risk of filter hitting frame
