90 yj air filter

since this is my first post i will try to keep it short.
I was wondering if i could get an aftermarket filter for my yj and get rid of my filter housing. I was looking at a round filter with a chrome top and liked it. my main concern is all the lines that go to the factory filter housing. are these really necessary or could i just get rid of them??? i am pretty mechanically inclined but know nothing about this subject. my last car was a 2001 honda civic that i modded heavily but i know little about carbs and all these vaccume lines. i really just want to clean up my engine bay a little and get all of the unnecessary out of the way. any help is appreciated and thanks in advance.

Re: 90 yj air filter

If you are going to do the whole changing the air cleaner you might as well switch in a motorcraft 2100 or 2150(for high altitude). With this you et rid of the POS carter and get a carb that doesnt want to flood when you hit an incline.
If you do, mr.gasket has a kit and you can find one in a junkyard for a couple bucks along with a rebuild kit.

Re: 90 yj air filter

I think i found out what most of the stuff does and goes to but i am not sure about a few things. there are two wires that go to the housing from a harness, there are two lines on the underside and i dont know what these go to. if anyone can help it would be appreciated.

Re: 90 yj air filter

I did the Holley 2300, like it better than the motorcraft.
