Review on πŸ”§ Enhance Transmission Performance: Derale 14010 Deep Pan Filter Extender in Sleek Black Design by Dale Toth

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Don't waste your money

This is totally useless. It must first be modified to properly fit the valve body. The third hole is to use a long screw hole in the valve body. Unfortunately none of the supplied screws fit. They are either too long or too short. So I drilled a hole for the extension to sit flush with the head of the hanger bolt. It worked fine. Then I tried to unscrew the Derale 14210 transmission deep oil pan, the extension is too thick and the filter hits the cooling tubes in the oil pan. I read reviews about it but some reviewers said it worked for them so I decided to give it a try. I have a 2003 Ram 1500 4WD with a 46RE transmission. If the extension cord was three times smaller than it actually is, everything would fit. I would not recommend this extension as the pan will not fit. waste of money for me. I was thinking of cutting it off at the machine shop but I don't want to drain the transmission again.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Some errors
