Yes, I hade to cut in the top of the bushwackers How much of the Bushwacker did you have to cut? How did it end up looking/any close up photos??? As you can probably guess, I have a snorkel mounted and am looking at the Bushwacker flares… I will try to take a picture during this weekend. :thumbsup:

Can we see a photo of where the snorkel and fender flare meet?

Cool write-up, but what is the difference between the open and closed system?

Your truck looks good and one of the cleanest i've seen. But, i think i like that narrorer stance.

Where are the big & tall sizes?

they will go back home after they run out of money.

I’m all about having a good time at someone else’s expense, but should we be encouraging his effort to brand himself as the CC ZOOLANDER…?

Cool, haven’t ran across that thread…

You're killing me :doh:

Those are hookahs Brent. Kinda like bongs but only because they use water.. Most times are used to smoke favored tobaccos.. Very cool pictures though.. :thumbsup: "...flavored tobacco" - you really think? :shake:

A Chevy...? He really has problems now. Probably been better off with his wrecked MJ. jtdesigns, are you a forum junkie or what? :typing: haha... no just read on here where he bought a chevy... just going with a hunch... I guarantee he joined a chevy forum to ask some crazy questions... Not trying to flame the dude, but he did ask some off the wall s#!t now and then... :agree:

Well where did you buy it? How does it cool the engine idling, on the trail, in traffic and what not. I'm in hawaii so thats what I'm taking into account, either i find a dealer for that hood and buy it or purchase it off the internet $400 plus the added hundred for freight and what ever other costs and the wait time. So I'm looking at $500+ and weeks to months depending on the shipping. Then i could buy the vents. For $60+ from genright, $160 from race ace or scout out some lebarons. But i want to put a bored throttle body and 1"spacer. As of now theres barely enough room for my k&n intake, the part that attaches to the throttle body rubs the hood supports. Thats one of the main reasons i wanted the cowl induction. But if a bored throttle body is as good as a spacer then ill just get a bored TB and some vents. And i won't have a spare hood lying around rusting under my house. I bought them out of the Essentials magazine (Quadratec). I think the information in the link that Don provided above is pretty accurate, regarding the cooling and clearance aspects. I guess it comes down to if you have the time/patience to cut the holes and fab the drip pans, you can save the money for another project. I prefer the looks of the cowl hood and it definitely allows for increased air circulation – fits my needs. You could probably recuperate some $ buy selling your old hood instead of having it sit around and rusting away. I just gave mine to the cable installer.

Yep, sorry i got a bit off topic. Wouldn't know about the size... I only run 30" BFG MT's on the MJ.

Ok, take it from someone who lives in the Pacific NW (its know to rain here a little bit) and has run the BFG AT’s on the DD for years… They do great in the rain, and do well in the snow. For some reason they suck in the sand, it’s like they just want to dig in. Sorry Brent, I usually agree with everything you say…

Sure the cowl induction hood is a few dollars more (I think I got mine for just under $400) but just think of all the time you will save. Depending on who you ask… I also think they look and function better then vents. I vote for the new cowl hood!

I signed it...

All the time... Unfortunately I don’t learn from those experiences until I do it a few times.

I would get the bigger one especially if you plan to add any lights, winch or other electrical gadgets.

I call my dog (who is a coon hound) a "coonass" occasionally.

That sucks! I’ll bet it makes you appreciate life a bit more. I’ve been through life threatening injuries and never will fully recover… I do appreciate what I have a lot more after each injury.

Not good but who cares, it's not my DD.

Both the Line-X and Rhino dealers are competitive when it comes to pricing. If I were you… I would get an estimate from the one that you don’t want, and then use that as leverage when it comes to pricing for the other. I did this and saved about $100 with my Rhino liner (ended up being cheaper). Bother are pretty similar, Rhino is applied a little thicker… You should be happy with either.

Thanks again Brent!
