So, I kinda screwed up on my 5.0...
Stock EXPLORER oil filter attaches to what is essentially a long right angle bracket off of the motor, attached via a Bolt.
I of course, in my infinite wisdom, threw this bracket out, thinking I could install my oil filter relocation kit.
Well because the bracket BOLTED to the motor, the fitting against the motor for the oil filter is internally threaded, and not externally.
I've removed the internally threaded piece, but don't have the foggiest idea of what it would be called to buy one that would allow me to use a filter straight against the block and/or a cooler....
