Re: 06 GXP...retros done
Just got done with my install however i used a diffrent approach i used a L shaped bracket from steel i got at home depot. took the lower bumper bracket support bolt off (13mm) and installed it there. the two two 90 degree fittings came from ace hardware. side note: tourqe these fitting as hard as you can!! and use the thread tape or some type of sealant on the threads!!
9'in piece of steel 2x m6x1.0 bolts hold the housing to the bracket
no bumper removal neccesary. added benefit of fresh air smacking the housing will help keep the fluid cooler as well. you will also need about a quart of fluid.

Re: 06 GXP...retros done
That stock b&m filter was leaking st the top weirdly enough did some research and found a one that flows 3 times at much and and about 30% more capacity
Quoted from Best flowing Oil Filter? [Archive] - For A Bodies Only Mopar Forum
For high flow applications, the Wix 51970 / Fram 3612 will flow more than three times what a Wix 51515 / Fram PH8A will.
Napa sells them Lol the auto zone pep boys and orielly auto didn't have them in stock.
