The frame was from Oregon so it was very clean and not beat down..

Call Pro Tect for an aluminum chassis skid.  Another option is a P.R.O ballistic poly skid.

Jason at fourwerx wasn’t sure of the size filter they used on the prototype airbox so I’ll need to figure that out.ill take some measurements and hopefully someone will have some input.he said it was a 4.5 inside diameter but a short length filter is needed.does anyone know of any manufacturers that I can check out that have sizing charts rather than machine specific filters?I haven’t really looked yet..Thanks for any input..
