does anyone know this?
 

I want to install a new air filter housing on my 258, carter carb. Does
anyone know the receiver size? that worded right...

in other words, I ditched the emissions crap and want a new air filter
housing and im not sure what "size" I need.

hope that makes sense

Re: does anyone know this?
 

I guess you live someplace warm eh? Man I hate it when my carb turns
into a block of ice so I kept the stock filter housing with the hot air
intake tube.

I think the aftermarket housings come by vehicle type so you just get
one that says it's fits a CJ/YJ or use a tape measure on the
opening.......

Re: does anyone know this?
 

Canadian Tire sells new air filter housings that will fit on. They sell
a lot of Jeep stuff including carb kits.

Alberta is where I saw a whole mess of frozen carbs. One froze into a
solid block at 50 mph in a snow storm on the Jasper highway. What a
riot that was, the throttle stayed at 50 mph..... We got it stopped and
had to pull into a garage bay in Edson or Stoney plain maybe for an hour
to thaw the sucker.

I do recommend the stock filter and heat tube for the winter.....
