    Re-routing fuel lines?

    Not to change things but was looking at the fuel lines and noticed the return hose at #8 is wet (diesel) on the covering that is on the hose can this return line be changed without removing the engine and dismantling the whole truck (notice the sarcasm here)?

    Re-routing fuel lines?

    Can the fuel lines that run under the intake to the IP and water drain valve be re-routed to the top side instead of the engine vally? Has anyone done this? Just seems it would be easier to keep an eye on them and much cooler for the hose wear and tear.

    Changing over the clutch fan

    Yea thats what I am afraid of but the other 20 inch fan upgrade is a 140.00 more. I was hoping to find out if someone has done it without trimming the shroud. I would rather not spend the extra money but will instead of all that trimming.
