For anybody still wandering.. The bumper is home made. Any thoughts on it? I kinda like it alright, and the price is right for 200 bucks, probably get it for 150. Figure if nothing else i can just cut the brush guard off and have a decent bumper that's at least stronger then stock. May get some tie in's and put some D rings on it so i'll actually have a recovery point in the front.

 

I'd get it and cut the brush guard off, if you don't let me know I might get it.

 

Is there a VC gasket leak also?

 

I'd buy it, tie a long rope to it and store it in my boat for future use.

 

but a D60 will take way more of a beating

 

Hey of you don't want it I'll take it

 

Would look awesome on mine since my jeep is more of an emergency service vehicle

 

It goes in but the nut will not go on the bolt at all, can I just weld the bolt in there or does it have to be tightened down?

 

Has to be TIGHT that bolt is the number one cause of death wobble, why won't the nut go on?

 

Just get a new nut and bolt, if you hammered the bolt it probably stripped some threads.

 

Alright will do, I'm supposed to be going to look at it possibly sometime today.

LOL it's not THAT big, if I get it it'll definitely be modified from how it is..

 

So Im needing a new oil filter adapter housing?

 

More than likely

 

Or do the oil filter mod for free and never have to worry about it leaking again. I'm on my phone or I would post a link to the page showing the mod. If you are going to remove the adapter you should do the mod. No new parts are needed. Just remove the bolt that the filter screws onto and put that in your block. Use side clutters to remove the crush pin that is in the block that keeps the adapter from turning. I have to look up the filter size which will screw directly to the block now on the bolt that was removed from the filter and screwed into the block.

 

I appreciate the responses guys. Iv seen the oil filter mod however Id like to keep the housing in there and Im told it can be a tight fit for the filter. I opened the hood and looked from the top and couldnt see any oil so I crawled underneath (the puddle has grown over night) and looked up to see oil dripping from the base of the oil filter onto the wire going to the starter and then finally onto the ground. Its a brand new purolator pureone filter. I dont see oil coming out of the adapter however it still could be leaking. The local dealer has a replacement one for $46. Driving over an hour Saturday to go wheeling and this is really bugging me. I replaced the o-rings with ones from the kit you find in the HELP isle but maybe the adapter is warped. I also put a thin coat of oil over the o-rings before assembly... Is my best bet to purchase a new adapter?
