not sure why, but I just pictured inmates being hosed down with a fire hose when I read that. I need sleep

I have a question concerning the snorkel build, I have one thing left to seal up on my air box; it's where the hot air tube comes out of the air box snot and ran down to the smog stuff, my truck is desmogged, so what's the best way to close off the hole on the bottom side of the snot?
Is there a way to take the internals out and just use the pulley and tensioner?
Went to open my 4+ bumper swing-outs and they took all I had to get 'em open. Got a block and the floor jack and jacked 'em off the truck. Not exactly corroded but gunky--think it's due to the mag-chlor sprayed on the roads 'round here.
I always thought there should be zerk fittings on these as there's a inch or so wide recess between the bronze looking bearings about a quarter inch deep. So I drilled a hole in each, threaded it and mounted zerks. Filled 'em with Lucas tacky red #2. Super easy operation now.
Installed a mechanical oil pressure gauge to my 60. Was able to retain the stock electrical oil pressure gauge as well. Came out clean and flawless. I was surprised that the electrical gauge was pretty consistent with the new mechanical gauge, just not as responsive.
Hope to put a thread together with part # and photos on the install soon.

Sweet! Would love to see pics of where you put them exactly. I'm ordering the rear to match the front soon!
Not really worth a pic--I just eyeballed where the recess was then shot some holes in and threaded 'em. I put 'em on the ends--facing out when the swingouts are closed--so you don't have to open 'em to lube 'em.

Oh, sorry.Sorry, I don't own the bumper. That's why I can't picture it
