Double filter set-up? Plan on changing fluid/filter in 36 50 75k?
Transmission in the F350 says to change every 36k. I just check & I have 1,068 miles to go to hit 36k on Motorcraft LV.

remote filter. intercepts the cooler flow before it goes into my cooler then back to transmission. theoretically i should never have to change the pan filter but im glad i did after rebuild. there was some stuff sucked up on it. i plan on going 2 years on this HPL fill before sending it off to get analyzed.

BiTOG centerfold of the week!

I absolutely love how massive this filter is when held on hand. I tried to fit one on my 1NZ-FE a few months ago only to see the AC compressor gets in the way, otherwise I'm left slapping on a FS3600 as the biggest possible filter for that engine without going remote. Would've been nice if I had an extra quart of added capacity to such a small sump. Even with the FS3600 my oil capacity is increased to around 4.2 - 4.3 quarts compared to 3.9 quarts with the stock YZZN1 filter which are smaller than a teacup.

Thanks for the photos!

flushed with engine running until color coming out of cooler line was the same color as it went in.

have some differential life coming in for the front and rear diff aswell. only thing in the truck that won’t be filled with HPL is the transfer case but it gets whatever the cheapest 0w-20
is once a year.

I've had excellent success with using Lube Locker gaskets for the diff's. They are reusable too. No mess to scrape off if you're in there again later on.

just doing a drain and fill, AAM’s have drain and fill bolts and my aftermarket cover has a redundant set.

That's convenient! I'm not that lucky on the Ford.

ford always has had their “better” ideas. you’ll never catch me dead owning something with a blue oval on it.
