| Post subject: | Tranny Cooler Return Filter |
Just want to check with you guys that I got the right filter (not that I don't trust the dealer parts guy). I asked for part #4799662 Cooler Return Filter, and got a superceded part #5179267. Is this the right filter? TIA. Also, anybody know where I can get a gasket instead of the RTV ? Also, while I'm there, anybody put a Tranny temp sensor in, and where? Might be a good time while changing the fluid. Appreciate your thoughts. |

I don't know the correct number, but my posting on Picasa may answer your question on the location of the trans temp sensor. If you are going to replace the filters, I would replace both of them. There were a batch of defective filters that did not have a anti back drain valve and GMCTD found them being sold on eBay.

RTV is best - just clean the mating surfaces with lacquer thinner to remove all oily residue, then squirt and go - you should also replace both filters, return and pan Your requested filter p\n is the defective version - the version you got is the correct filter - Wix was making the original filter under that 479962 number, with anti-drainback valve - DCJ went to Purolator for second source, but forgot to tell them about the anti-drainback valve, so Purolator started shipping filters without the valve under that part number - with stocks being full of valved filters and non-valved filters, both same color and labeled with that part number, they eventually purged all those filters from stock, created a new number for the new valved filters, and went from there - you got the good one, 5179267 I found a guy on eBay selling those original 479962 p\n filters, advised him of the resultant problems, and that he should call the dealer for further info, whereupon he pulled the listing. |

Thanks guys, I appreciate your very detailed and specific answers. gmctd-you put my mind at ease. I colud just imagine getting it all apart and having the wrong filters. warp2diesel-I am considering the PML due to a little extra fluid and a place for the temp sensor. Why did you opt for the #11039 extradeep and not the #10304 deep? Seems like the deep wouldn't hang so low. Do you have skid plates under it now? |

| Post subject: | RE Why the PML11039? |
My Flat Bed Beaver Tail trailer is 7000# fully loaded and the price on the 11039 was the same as the 10304 at the time I clicked to pay. I wanted the extra cooling and fluid capacity for towing. Next big project is a PML 11039 specific trans mission skid plate that will have a grate to allow air to come in to cool the trans when towing. I will post drawings with dimensions and photos when done. PML asked to use my pics for their illustrations, I said OK. Steve |
