Good work that looks nice
I still dont have the new Shield on my own truck.... just to busy, it's hard to watch a 4 month old and do metal work at the same time

I ordered the parts needed to make mine , The price on the elbo and tubing has gone up maybe we are causing a shortage But I have did get the filter for 56 $ . Have a friend who sells Amsoil

everything is here. I will be assembling it this weekend . I dont know if it was mentioned here or not but ,Why did they put a Brillo pad in with the tubing? only thing I could think of was to give a satin brushed look but since I plan on using a buffing wheel and some ruge on the tubing to polish it up a bit. Decided it would It make a nice little thinking of you present for my wife ... She was so appreciative

Has anyone ever used the low temp aluminum welding rods? kind you use with common propane torch.I bought some last week . Since my mig welder isnt set up for aluminum thought I'd give a try for the sensor bung. Figuired it cant be any harder than gas welding or brazing.

I dont have any experience's with brazing aluminum...let us know if or how it works...

yeah the brillo pad is for polishing the tubing.

Is parts list on the original post still valid for the intake?

53 willys

yep.......

I figured i would add to the list of people installing this intake. Definatly got to give props to ***** for coming up with this really great looking intake. Heres mine that i put on earlier this week and today i built a small shroud for it to keep it in place.

53 willys

looks great!!! did you weld the tubing to the shroud???

yellowsp700

No i didnt weld it up although if i had a way to, thats a really great idea. The intake goes through the shroud at an angle which keeps the tubing from just sliding back and forth if you understand what im saying. It was just a quick idea i came up with and if i had had a little more aluminum i would have ran the one side all the way up to the radiator then maybe boxed it in. But this intake is really big and i was having problems getting it to clear the hood. This shroud bearly clears by itself. Thanks for the comments.

I just ordered everything and was just wondering if you drill a hole a push the air sens in? If so what size hole do I drill? I havent looked at it so I dont know how it is hooked up on my factory box!

53 willys

1/2" is the hole size....

yellowsp700, would you happen to have any specs for your shield. Ive got some sheet aluminum just laying around, and if you had any measurments that would save me alot of time. Thanks joel
