    Uh... I hope that was optional. I thought anything behind it would be a PITA to clean and/or replace, so I left it open...

    It is optional, i put some screen behind mine to just weed out all the big stuff like pinestraw and mud chunks from getting on the filter!

    How did you go about installing that screen? I definitely feel you need to have something there for the big stuff...

    The way i did it was just cut the hole to fit the deck plate and spread the Sealant then lay a piece of the screen of choice over the hole while making sure there is a lot of screen around the hole, then i pushed the deckplate in over it so that it pressed it under the lip of the DP and put the screws in and let the sealant dry up for about an hour and its good to go!

    Eh, ive had leaves fly up in there before and be stuck to the screen as well as pinestraw but maybe thats just around here, But when i did come home from durhamtown the whole screen was just about covered in Georgia Clay, so it kept that off of the filter :shrug: i guess its just personal opinion, not necesarry but good to be there just in case :thumbsup:

    4" will work on the 2.7 as well, just a little tighter fit!

    peace of mind when going through deep water crossings. If you leave the breather on the axle like that, water can easily get sucked in the axle. Relocating it eliminates that problem

    Your breather allows for air pressure changes in your differential
    and the mod allows to put your differential under water without fear of your diff sucking in water :D

    Edit: bah to slow :(
