Remote Oil Filter Pipes

Recommended Posts

drj545

Has anyone got a good source for the remote oil filter pipes that connect between the engine and the filter housing? Items 8 and 9 on the schematic below. 
 

I was going to see if I could get some made using the original fittings off my rusty pipes. If anyone had a spare pair that would be good also!

I cut them off and silver solder 10AN fittings on, so I can use quality hoses.

I've bought dash10 adapters and had two hoses made to suit. Only fiddly bit is that the plate op de gearbox is too narrow to fit the dash10 adapters beside eachother, for this I had to file the hexagon a bit down.

As per my wanted thread, I ended up getting pipes made. The hydraulics place made up new adapter tails using the old fittings on one side and a more common fitting on the other.

 

The only thing is that the new fittings are quite large - there is space between them at the engine end, but I might play about with a longer upper hose to see if I can move them apart.
