Back to the air silencer...when I was underneath my X , installing tow hooks yesterday,I noticed that the air intake had a rectangle piece of plastic in front of it.Is this what your talking about removing? I thought this was some type of debris guard,but didn't see where anything could fly into it.I was wondering if it could be removed......Let me know if this is it ! I need something to do!

jarrett, where did you happen to install the towhooks? Can you take a pic? I was about to install some too to the frame in the front and was curious as to where you are putting them.

I installed them on the frame.On my 94, there is a slot on each member I used for the front holes. I had to drill the rear holes(right on the bend of the frame). The hooks I used were from a 92 F-250. Once I drilled the holes,I slipped the bolts into the slots and then patiently fit the washers on and brought the bolt back down through.(had to play with it, don't get discouraged, it can be done!).I put the nuts on from the bottom. I managed to get the closed end of a 3/4" wrench into one of the slots in the frame to hold the bolt while I tightened it.This worked for the front bolt.The rear bolt I had to come from behind and overtop the cross member to get hold of the back bolt. It took patience, but it beat the heck out of taking the bumper off !! Also I took a Rotozip to the airdam to make access holes. I had a solid airdam. Sorry, I don't have a camera....yet! I hope this helps you.

hey jarrett i dont knwo what that piece is or what it is there for but i removed it and it didnt cause anything to happen. i removed it because it was only getting air from the passenger side somehow and so i took it off so it would get the air coming through the left side of the grill.

yeah, the biggest thing to do is remove the side moldings. here's a pic, mine are kind of obscured by the graphics (my paint is kind of screwed up around them from being repainted my maaco so i had to cover it with the graphic) but it should give you an idea. imo it makes a huge diffference in appearance. other than that just clean it real good

Where did you get that front airdam? That looks really cool...
