Anyone running this roll pan and wanting to install a hitch, you can have both with a little creative cutting. If you want the measurements, I can save you a lot of time fitting it.

I never heard that expression referring to a car part. What is a car furnace part?

I looked it up, but this is the only thing I could find. http://www.afc-holcroft.com/products/batch/car-bottom-furnace

here's a quote from a more appropriate link:

“I love to talk about nothing it's the only thing I know anything about.”
― Oscar Wilde

Makes sense,,,and stands to reason,,,Oscar Wilde was born in Nothing, Az.


Town of Nothing, Arizona.

Founded 1877. Elevation 3269ft.

"The staunch citizens of Nothing are full of Hope, Faith, and Believe in the work ethic.
Thru-the-years-these dedicated people had faith in Nothing, hoped for Nothing, worked at Nothing, for Nothing."

I'm considering buying the adjacent parcel (in the foreground) and calling it > Town Next to Nothing,,,,and building a site comparable to Moddersville...

Gas station, pizza to go, convenience store with **alcohol sales, and of course, pay restroom facilities.

Being out in the middle of nowhere, between Phoenix and Kingman on the way to Vegas,,,,it has potential for big cash profits

**alcohol is the primary cause of the many vehicle accidents and fatalities along this stretch of U.S. highway 93

Larry I think you should name your town SOMETHING. That way, when you retire you could sell SOMETHING. Post signs everywhere. SOMETHING FOR SALE. NEXT TO NOTHING.

Hey Roland, these guys feel they need to comment on our choices of roll pans.

Let's quickly rip them off because they are at the center of the universe and their views are all that really matter

well it hides the stock appearance which is black cooler, aluminum cross member and multiple bolt ends. When I had it off recently, I couldn't wait to get it back on.

As far as heat, I think it actually cools the tranny by scooping up air when moving forward. Having the hitch on, softens the appearance of "ductwork" which you all seem to hate so much. While working with it, I noticed that it is well made and high quality stainless.


So, lets hear all about the usefulness and beauty of your hood scoop, side vents and spoiler.

Dave, you have to cut the top to the shape shown in the first post. I then applied door edge molding to the cut edge just for safety (the cut edge can be sharp). The unit is surprisingly stable when cut. I used regular snips to cut it. The SS mesh is very hard, so you need some HD side cutters for it. If you want, I can take some measurements to save you some time. I had it off and on about six times before getting it right.

Draw a line with a marker using the 3 reference points along the top on each side and cut with snips. Then cut straight across the mesh at the 9 3/4" marks (red line is the cut line)
