Oil Guard installation

Who has really good picture of the install of an oil guard by pass filter. I am try to figure out where to mount the filter on a 2001 7.3L. The instructions say to mount it on the frame rail near the stock filter but it does not seem to fit anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.

Check out JTharvey's gallery pictures. I believe he has one installed.

I'll get some pics of mine and post them tomorrow. I had to fabricate a bracket out of some angle iron.

Thanks Nut!! You beat me to my own gallery. I mounted mine using existing frame holes. It's at an angle for clearance. Plenty of hose included in the kit -- I didn't use all they sent. Install there was quick and easy.

I finally got around to mounting it up. It was easy one I used a piece of angle iron attached to the frame. Now I can save on those oil changes.
