Pretty simple. I just took the center plug out of the top of the full flow filter mount and tapped for my supply. I mounted my bypass on the body mount in front of the front passenger tire.

Did you get the billet aluminum oil return cap?

When we put mine in, we took the wheel and inner fender off. If you go that route.

The only reason I wouldn't have put it there is if I were an avid off roader, but I'm not.

Looks pretty good. Only other thing is if you wanted to eliminate the loop coming out of the oil sending unit, you could use a 90 degree fitting and the hose could be more direct downward...but nothing wrong with this. The loop is nice and round as to not restrict or cause stress.

I would have used a 90 but I had been planning to mount it in front of the intake horn (whatever it's called). I probably should switch it out though. I had to get a 45* elbow for the (I think) return line out of the bypass.
