I searched and came up empty,

I can deal with excess heat that I have encountered from removing carpets. But if I can curb it, I will try it.

What have you all done to curb the excess heat without reinserting the carpet? I was thinking of picking up a piece of carpet from the junkyard and cutting it to fit just near the well, does the heat reduction hood work well for this? Or a tranny oil cooler?

I haven't done mine yet but raptor is one of the best on the market. It's a two part system it will cost you about 150-200

Previous owner installed a 2inch body lift. But that is a brilliant point.
