how did you mount it to the frame? just tap it and use some sheetmetal screws? or soemthing like that? I dont see how you would get a nut on the other side.

PP, here is the thread mf mentioned. It has some good details in it.

dual remote install on F-150 using bracket.

You can use a bolt with a nut if you use a stong telescoping magnet to put the bolt through the hole from inside the frame. I did it a few times because I decided to replace the bolts with longer ones. It's a quick and easy install when you have a good plan.

I have some recent pictures now that I have a digital camera that I could upload. I also have an oil analysis online at BITOG.

Hey guys well with a little elbow grease i got the dual mount installed. I had no problems with leaks. But i did have a problem drilling out the bracket holes......... They didnt line up the first time. That was kinda a pain. I do have a problem though. I cant put my skid plate back on cause the bypass filter is in the way. I dont think i could have gotten it any higher though. Its like right up there next to the radiator bracket almost. Im thinking of modifying the skid plate. Anyone know if antyhing else?
