Wow, people don’t even read the truth in lending disclosure anymore do they? Hard to feel sorry for them.

Still doesn’t need a snorkel 😂.

Sure, with some spacer adapters. Good option for cheap tires and wheels.

I have a Ford Windstar filter housing in the garage just waiting for me to do a cowl intake. IAT and dust is all I’m looking to solve. I have a boat if I want to cross the lake.

I got my title to my hybrid I bought for work travel today. Almost 90 days after I took delivery. Happy tax day. $1200 for plates.

Once the bolt is out it should wiggle off. Maybe some penetrating oil and a few love taps will help.

Goodyear owns the whole thing now. Cooper owned MT and DC. Goodyear bought out Cooper and all sub brands in June 2021. High odds GY will screw it up.

Those brake backing plates are a sign. These things has seen some salt!

Yup, rear window gives it away. Nice top either way though. I miss my hardtop, but was constantly damaging it off-road.

My LJ had a snorkel when I bought it. It was the first thing I removed. It was a hack job install and I didn’t like it. With 43’s I don’t like it when water is over my tires let alone my hood. I do have a Windstar filter housing I plan to install to pull air from the cowl area for lower AIT...

I paid $400 this year for my two acres an hour from the city just across the county line. The personal property tax rate here is 1/2 of the city. I’m saving where I can 🤷.

Will also says the Taurus fan is like 50amp draw on high speed. I’ve had no voltage issues unless I run the winch hard. It will set the “check gauges” light due to voltage drop but resets once you cycle the key.

31”…

Manual or Auto? Manual 33’s would be most proportionate and most readily available. If auto I’d stay 31 if you don’t want to change gearing. 30 and 32 are drying up. Not many options.

Can’t speak for the 2.5 but the Taurus fan was my solution for heat issues with a super charged 4.0. Running a two speed controller from dccontrol.com. Runs cool in the summer with AC on. Should be plenty for a 2.5.
