Hello,
I am convinced after reading a few threads that I need to install an external transmission filter on my explorer.
However, since I am new to transmission filters, I have a few questions.
It appears that transmission external filter mounts use just regular engine oil filters, is this true? Or are there "special" filters made just for transmission fluid.
Also, can some one please tell me where are some good places online to purchase a quality external transmission filter kit?
Are there any brands I should avoid? Any brands that make exceptional external transmission filter kits?
Thanks.
