Review on πŸ”§ Convenient and Efficient Derale 25708 Remote Filter Mount Kit for Enhanced Filtration Performance by Aaron Ward

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good for extra protection.

For installing an exchangeable transmission filter. I definitely feel better with a thinner filter than the pan filter, aka the stone screen. I plan to put a new filter in every oil change. If you are trying to get more miles from the filter I would recommend installing a pressure gauge AFTER the filter to check the restriction. When things get restrictive, you can smoke the gears pretty quickly. Another tip: pay attention to the filter you use. While FL1A will do, I'm not sure if it's the best choice, it actually takes quite a bit of pressure to clear the check valve on most "oil" filters. The last thing you want is unnecessary restrictions in the cooler/lube for flow paths. I used a Wix 51525 filter, which is listed as a hydraulic filter, has no bleed check valve and has good flow, and I attached a giant magnet to it.
