What part of AK ? I had a bhaf and I cut up an round wastebasket to make a water/ mud shield. It's still faces the opening in the inner fender, but now I'm running a cheapo spectre come filter from orielies.

I live in the anchorage area but I drive all over hunting and fishing

for the time being it was just a filter off the turbo now it is back up by the fire wall. same kind of filter though. the stocker is holding you back.
