Billet Aluminum oil Filter

Billet Connection’s new filter assembly allows you to inspect the filter element without draining or leaking any oil, unbolting or loosening any fasteners or fittings, and without losing any oil out of the oil system. This can be done in seconds after the engine is shut off, even when filtering nontransparent fluids like engine oil. This helps determine if the contaminants and particles are from normal use or from bearings or other components excessively wearing in the engine. This filter also allows a visual inspection of the oil pumping through the filter to determine the condition of the oil

Bulletproof

Custom-Fit Ball-End Rear Antiroll Bar

The newest innovation in rear-suspension control is Chassisworks’ ball-end antiroll bar with integrated framerail mounts. The unique design provides maximum exhaust clearance by placing the antiroll bar close against the vehicle’s underbody with no bulky mounts placed along the framerail. Billet bushing housings screw in from the outside of each framerail to capture the ball ends of the bar with low-friction polymer bearings. The antiroll bar assembly includes a 7/8-inch road handling or 11/4-inch drag race, heat-treated torsion bar with splined ends and billet aluminum arms. Each arm features a single split to ease installation fit, and to clamp down upon the spline when tightened. A socket-head fastener applies pressure to the spline, creating a play-free joint while also fitting into a groove machined at the end of the bar. This locking joint prevents the arms from sliding, even under extreme force. Billet arms connect to the chassis mounts by adjustable-length steel endlink assemblies with 3/8-inch shank 4130-body rod ends for the ultimate in strength.
