Trying to find out which vehicle this air box is from
 
I am modifying my jeep and need to replace my stock airbox with this stock ford airbox

http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h6...j/P1010078.jpg

I need the canister portion and that elbow, the horizontal piece is part of the stock jeep 4.0 intake

any knowledge would held a lot :-drink , or if you have an extra one I need it

Welcome to the forum :-wink

The canister is either a 97-03 F series truck or it could be from a Windstar. My 96 had one like that.
Not sure on the elbow, looks like a Ford IAT sensor in it though. Maybe a Ranger/Explorer.


Cowl induction eh?

I'd prefer one without a sensor in the elbow.

I have an ARB snorkel now, I don't like it, I hit a lot of trees with it. I want to switch over to the H1 mushroom cap style snorkel head coming out of my cowl because I am doing highline fenders
Here is what the fenders were like before, just a regular old jeep on 35s

I am still working on it but you get the idea with this picture

basically I cut a section out of the hood and mounted the fenders higher in the front, the back I mounted the flares higher and cut away some of the wheel well

That god awful clip around the air box is the same that my '97 5.4L had but the rest is a bit different from what I remember. The actual round air box also looks to be the same. If it has some holding clips on the bottom it probably is.

looks like a ranger 97 ish

Not to bad for a Jeep! Hopefully everything comes out the way you want it to.

Take a look around the parking lot at your work...someone should be able to pop their hood and let you take a peek. The airbox looks smaller than the one on our F150's...The Windstar's doesn't have the elbow, and neither does the Ranger's.

Take the picture to your Ford dealership and ask a couple of the mechanics...
