Looking for easier access to the oil filter

My problem is not the steering, its the torsion bar and exhaust. I could remove the head pipe but honestly its easier to just remove the torsion bar. It only takes about 20 minutes so not a huge deal.
Yes, I tried the shorter filter and no dice. Its not the length but the diameter that causes issues.
If it werent for the aftermarket AC lines I would be able to pull it out from the top. On my bone stock 340 dart sport its tight but it will come out up top.

To the original poster, you should be able to get your filter out through the top fairly easy with that set up. If your running stock 318 manifolds I dont see why you would need the 90° adapter. The shorter filter (PH43 fram, 51068 I think is the wix number) would help but you should still be ok with the longer one(PH8A fram 51516 wix). I posted the fram number for ref only. I typically run wix on everything.
