Thanks for fielding this one John.....yer right.....was counting sheep by 11.

He's right Rob. *REAL* easy mod. Nice little hp gain for the dollars
spent. Plus, never havin' to replace the filter again is a bonus. You
also can't beat the looks when ya pop the hood on a "new" truck and a flash
of chrome hits ya.

K&N p/n for the 10 x 2.25 is e-1080 I believe. Stock replacement for a
Jeep Wrangler. I've got a list of about 8 filters in the 10" dia. from 2"
to 3" if anyone is interested.
