On my 98 V6 4x2, I mounted my single filter relocation mount to a frame
member on the passenger side next to the engine toward the firewall. The
frame member/mount is at about the same level as the bottom of the oil pan.
The filter is in a near horizontal position. Has been on since early 99 and
have had no problems with it.

Subject: DML: 4.7l oil filter relocation
I've seen a lot of recent posts on this and have the same dilemna-where
do it go???
Anyway, thought I'd try to narrow down the scope of this with some
questions.
1)Is there a danger in mounting the remote filter too high, say above
the old filter or the oil filler neck?
2)Is there a danger of mounting it too low???
3)Sideways may not make sense(maybe it does), but what about filter
upside down? Would this prevent the oil from coming up to pressure soon
enough?? Other hazards?
Just thinking this might narrow things down enough for me to find
'someplace' to mount a mod I bought a year ago and still haven't
installed. Bernd, you well yet?, need help.
