I am wondering where the best place for relocation of the oil filter. I have a '97 4.6. thank you for any help.

 

whats wrong with where it is now?????????

1997 F-150 XLT 4.6 REGULAR CAB, FLARESIDE PACIFIC CLEARCOAT GREEN 5-SPEED. WESTIN NERF BARS, POWER EVERYTHING,BUG SHIELD, EX-TANG SOFT COVER, BED LINER(FORD).

Better 1/2 : 92 Red T-Bird.

 

I thought about one of those. I was thinking how easy it would be to just slide under the truck, reach up along the framerail and take the filter off. I then thought about how the extra length in the system might affect engine oiling capabilities (oil pressure). My idea was that the farther you have to pump it and then pump it back the harder it would be on the engine.

------------------
97 Ford F150 XLT 4x4 4.6L auto, Std cab/Long bed, 3.55LS rear axle, PW,PL, and PM, captian chairs w/arm rests
Sylvania Cool Blue Bulbs, Ford logo hitch and license plate, tinted windows, blackouts front and rear(w/ford logos on front blackouts),ventvisors all around, painted logos on door sills and under hood, 55w backup lights, K&N Filter, custom 4x4 emblems, cup holder/LED mod, 99 F150 Triton V8 emblems, and much more to come

 

where is your filter now? Mine is behind the front bumper and it's a piece of cake to change!
