i notice that it includes air cleaners on both sides of the hood (they appear to be different sizes, too).

i was wondering why they were there. i thought part of the reason for the bigger hood was to get the air cleaner inside . . .

thanx. . . .

They were an option. Could be ordered either way.

With the western models the bigger hood was for bigger engine and radiators options. In the US the Air cleaners were speced... underhood,passenger side or dual. some dealers would even send the trucks to a truck "Hop up shop" to have all the stanless and chrome stuff added. these shops would finish off the truck per the dealer/owners spec request. this included things such as fifth wheel install, dump bodie installes and stainless goodies.
