Okay, I was just at the Home Depot and stumbled across these rubber grommets. I opened up the hole to 5/16" and added one of these. It really finishes it off in my opinion.

Installed my Elite Engineering catch can this afternoon. I've had one of these on my Jeep since day one and its performed well. I've pulled at least a quart of oil from my system over the years and my intake manifold is absolutely spotless. Great product.

What color did you powder coat those wheels, looks great! Anthracite or gun metal, or something else?

Installed an Elite Engineering pedal today.



Some say you can install without removing the entire assembly but I found that difficult. I removed the plastic shield which allowed me to remove the two bolts without issue. The shield is held in place with three push type fasteners.



You'll need to remove two 13mm bolts and disconnect the wiring to remove the assembly.



New pedal installed and ready to go back in.



Should've come from the factory like this.

They're just semi-gloss black. I'll get some pictures up shortly.

Went after my clutch fluid today. Used Ranger's video below as a guide. Took almost a full quart of fluid to clear it up initially.
