    and once you DO get it apart, clean that poor filter housing. That CANNOT be rust, because it's cast alloy; therefore that's all just baked-on dirt and crud.

    Get the aftermarket filter bolt from XJ4Ever, it has a bigger head than the stock bolt.

    That little number cast into the housing there is the torque spec; it works out to 11 ft/lb.

    worst comes to worst you can cut off the head and then just use a vice grips on the bolt shaft, its crazy long so you dont have to worry
