1st Gen. Automatic Transmission Filter

Hey folks, anyone have a suggestion on a brand name for an automatic transmission filter for a 1996 SR5 TACO 4x4 , 3.4 L. ? Seems you have to after market now for this one and I have no idea which one to buy. Thanks, appreciated, Woodcutter

 

ATP is a solid brand and Pro-King as a close 2nd.

 

I didn’t think you had to replace them since they’re a metal screen. You just clean them. But I could be wrong

 

Yeah^^^
My 96….(2.4L auto)
Bought filter and gasket to prep for pan only fluid change
Both gasket and filter were wrong

But the actual metal screen grid was a 2mm lattice……almost as large as a metal pasta strainer
I just brake cleaned
Got money back for both incorrect parts

 

As stated its just a metal screen you wash and reuse.....
is has very little catching power.....only huge particles....

Get you an inline one for $30 and swap it every 30K...

I'll never drop my pan again....just these every 30K
and just swap out the 2qts in the pan every year or so...

the rubber transmission hoses should be replaced 5 or 6 yrs....close to the same as that filter....



After you clean that metal one you'll realize how ineffective it is....

I did stick 3 xtra of those super strong neo magnets in the pan bottom to keep the oem one company.....before re entombing....

I wasn't planning on returning.........at least until that kickdown cable fouls/breaks.....

 

Might be a good idea to play with her ass too.....
