## Description

Screen

Review: Great 6.0l powerstroke upgrade - Fits 6.0l powerstroke perfect
Review: Good upgrade for pre-2008 Torqshift - just remember to upgrade your pan as well so it will fit! - The stock screen and bypass filter seem to work fine on the early torqshift - mine has well north of 200k and still runs like a champ. But I figured if Ford decided to make a design improvement, why shouldn't I add it to mine retroactively? Especially since changing it requires removal of all of this anyway. Some people remove the original bypass filter entirely, I just changed it as well and left it as is. The new full-flow filter is deeper, which requires a new deeper pan. https://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/B000O0OUL6 . It bolts up quite easily and has a nice drain plug which makes future changes less messy (easier to drop an almost-empty pan than a full one). Just remember to add an extra quart for the deeper pan. Followup: Changed fluid again 35,000 miles later. The old fluid looked just as clean as the new fluid. I highly recommend this easy upgrade!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which transmission filter will fit my 07 f350 6.0 dually ft-180 or ft-144?**
A: Ft-144, but I would recommend upgrading your transmission pan to one off a 2008 6.4 and then you can run this filter which is much better (filters finer particles), plus you will gain some additional oil capacity with the newer pan. The 6.4 trans pan is only about $50.

**Q: Is this really going to take a couple months for shipping?**
A: Might didn't as I recall

**Q: Is this a OEM Ford part?**
A: Motorcraft is the aftermarket division of Ford.

**Q: I have a 2009 Ford 450 with a 6.0 Diesel and need a transmission filter & fluid can anybody help?**
A: If you have a torqshift 5r110 tranny, Only mercon SP or mercon LV fluid ONLY! (they are intererchangable/compatible) you can use the old TF-218 screen sump filter (in pan, only blocks trees and boulders)  and the TF-227 bypass filter (external). Since you have an 09, you should have the torqshift 5r110W which uses a high flow sump filter (in pan) which is the 36423JAFT filter. The 5r110W has a deeper pan than the 5r110 to accommodate the better high flow sump filter. If you have the old 5r110, you can but an upgraded pan to accomodate the better filter and forget about the bypass filter. Fill it with mercon LV and good to go.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Oem filter
*by K***I on June 9, 2024*

Works same as original transmission filter. Only thing there is a rubber seal on the tube that pressure fits into transmission make sure when removing old filter that the seal is still intact( old filter seal stayed in transmission had to manually remove it.) Before installing new filter
