replaceing a K&N
 

I have a Air kit on my02 Ranger it has a cone style filter and I was wounding how I could keep the air take tube and just replace the filter with a paper element? has any one done this?

You have two options. Either spec out a cone filter by going through Frams or the likes catalogs or build an airbox for a flat paper filter to sit in. If you go the airbox route, try fit the factory filter, so if you sell it, the next owner can replace it easily.

Just replace it with an AEM dryflow filter, it doesn't need oiling. They make cone filters for just about all intakes and have dryflow cone filters in several sizes.

I looked in to them and wow, they are great looking filter I i'm sold in the no Oil part.
Thanks a bunch man :D
