Hey I was wanting to do the deckplate mod, but all I can find is to buy one at a "marine store" What if there are no quote marine stores by me, where else can i get one? Thanks

 

RV stores usually carry them too. Or, order it from www.layline.com, www.westmarine.com, etc...

 

i got mine at Academy Sports Store in the boating dept... it was under $10

 

Thanks guys!

 

I've got one I'll ship to you. I'll need to check on shipping though if you're interested. I never used it, so it is new.

Be sure to throw an amsoil air filter in too.

Look for a deckplate write-up on my site.

 

Shoot me a price, shipping can't be to much. I'm interested if its a 4"

 

I'll try to ship it postal service for $10 total. Let me check and see if it is 4", I'm pretty sure it is, and the plate that screws off is clear.

 

Keep me updated :thumbsup:

 

I wouldn't waste the time or money on that crap. At speed yes you may get cool air but at idle and low speeds you still get hot engine compartment air. I had one it made no difference. I took it off and put a stock airbox back on. Who honestly wants to get out and close it for deep water and open it for perfomance. And it's nothing but that much more opening to suck in sand and dust when wheeling if your serious about wheeling do yourself a favor and leave it to the ttora board crowd who thinks the coolest mod is putting shock boots on the headrest poles

 

That is a dyno proven mod and I definately noticed a difference when I did mine....guess results vary. The mod also has very little to do with the temp of the air and far more to do with improving airflow. I think you would certainly be in the minority if you said it didn't work.

If M3Man02 doesn't take it, I'd be interested as well.

 

I drive 25 miles up a mountain (3000ft up to 6000 ft) everyday to work at the local ski area here and I notice a gain in power going up the mountain. I believe in the deckplate. And I put it on everytime I take it offroad to keep sand/mud/water out.. It's no more of a pain than locking manual hubs when going offroad. My $.02.

 

i never thought of that

 

It is a 4" deckplate. If you want it, pm me your address and I'll try to ship it, if the shipping is over $10, I won't ship it.

 

Whats so different in just setting your airbox lid aside vs putting a deckplate in. I bet none really. I gained more throttle response from my snorkel than I did the deckplate. As far as the hubs go I leave my hubs locked. Guess I can get away with it when having a trailer queen
