I put a 1249 Hydraulic filter inline before the Factory cooler about 3 years ago and my fluid has been clean ever since! Well I did a torture test on the set up let it run for 15 months and 30k of hard heavy hauling. Well today I pulled the filters and fluid. I Drained the pan first Still red with a slight burn to it but still clear. Next I pulled the in pan filter and it had very little dirt in it. I then pulled the spin on 1249 Napa filter and holy crap not only was it like a cup of liquid metal but it was heavy too! I have to say this filter set up works perfectly even when packed with crap. I have a pressure gauge because I was leery of the set up at first I thought as it clogged I would lose pressure but it never did! I just wanted to share a tranny saving idea that worked great!
