10% off Veteran's Day Sale at 4wd.com
Promo code VET09

thought i'll share, just got an email.

EDIT: apparently you have to call to get the discount 1-800-914-0065 valid Wed Nov 11 and Thu Nov 12, 2009.
tires seem to be on sale already when you buy 4 you get $100 off, not sure if this code apply to that already discounted deal, if it does it's the best price on tires i've seen - 4 x BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 Tire, 35x12.50R15 show in cart at $707, if this veteran's day promo apply then would be $637 = $159/tire - quite a deal for those (again not sure if you can redeem that code but if you can it's worth the call)

I couldnt agree more. I did go to the purolater site before putting in my newbie question and checked to see if the 30001 would work. I diligently spent about 20 minutes doing a "next" button marathon and when I got to jeep it did not show it as compatible. But i am glad i am wrong because i am going to get a pair of the filters to go with my air hog and sure drain.

I ordered an air hog. I should be recieving it tomorrow.

It won't shot it as matching because it's not the stock size.  These are over-sized so they are not recommended by the mfg.  Many of us have been running the PH8A style filter for years.  It's slightly larger then the stock PH16.  I would recommend going with a PH997A (I think that's the one in the faq).  That is more then twice the size of the PH16.  Amazon does not have a sale on them though.  They aren't as common as the PH8A.  Seems most everything uses a PH8A.

When you install the larger filter check the clearance between it and the motor mount. On my 94 the original mounts were like 1/8 inch from the filter, I noticed a dent in the filter from impact from wheeling. Once I replaced the mount (Another failure) it was different and had plenty of room.

should be oiled from the manufacturer.  if not you will be able to tell.

[zowtiak]

Thanks. I read earlier that it should be orange too.

[dwtaylorpdx]

the oil form the manufacturer is just to preserve it,
they should have a booster oil done before install.

At least thats how K&N and Uni-filter are installed.

Hmm, the Fram is Drop-In and go.  I don't think K&N's require additional maintenance out of the box or else a large majority of people aren't installing them properly.

thought so too, my Apollo's instructions only mention to service it after whatever miles but does not say to add any oil for the first install.
