How are you guys attaching a full flow filter. I've always had stock motors in my bus without one. My exhaust won't allow one of those type of brackets that go on exhaust studs.

If your heat riser tube is on the right or none at all, you can use the CB Maxi 2 oil filter/pump. Have cut and down angled the neck of these so they will work with heat riser tube on left or right.

Or the stock VW of Mexico one:

Sorry I didn't explain very well. I have a regular full flow filter, base and hoses. I need to mount the base that holds the filter.

Since you've already got a base that the filter screws to.... show us a picture of whatever model it is.... or tell us the mfr/part #

Then we can all chime in & say "mount it like this/that"..... or say "Get rid of that piece of junk & buy this one, it's way better."

I have mine under the drivers rear corner, bolted to the frame. Routing the hoses is a bit of a pain.

Initially I let them hang under the exhaust pipes because I didn't have any heat sleeve to allow me to run them between the header pipes. It's begging to get snagged and ripped.

I've since routed them up though a hole in the rear tin, into the engine bay. And then down through a notch in the apron. My apron is a hammered p.o.s. so I didn't mind cutting it. This seems to have put the hoses out of harms way, and the filter is up high enough that it's protected, but not a pain to get a wrench on. HTH

I have mine located behind the drivers rear wheel too. Here is a look at how I protected the lines.
