illinilefttackle 399 #1 Posted April 26, 2016 Hello Guys- I'm finishing a 1973 16 AUTO Tractor- The last thing I need to do before it's finished is change the Trans Fluid ( Dextron lll) & Filter- I want to be positively correct on the Filter it takes- NAPA can only tell me -1410 Or 1307- NAPA filter. Can anyone tell the the correct one- or should I just try to Deal with Toro? Thanks- Al Sundstrand trans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,745 #2 Posted April 26, 2016 Personally, I would NOT use anything other than the OEM trans filter. It may be a few bux more, but it is the best way to go....without question. The micron rating and the pressure resistance / release are always a factor. If you get the OEM, you can be sure you have the correct one. I don't know what those factors are, nor do I care. I just know that the filter is probably the most critical component of the Sundstrand system.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #7 Posted April 26, 2016 I hate Fram filters I have lost three good engines due to Fram oil filter failure...I'm running a NAPA 1410 on my 1277 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,660 #8 Posted April 26, 2016 I would also vote against Fram 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

illinilefttackle 399 #11 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) Thanks Guys- I finished the job today- OEM filter from TORO- and 4 quarts Dextron iii- ran it- checked Full- FYI- The tractor transmission ran even smoother after the change- it had a "FRAM" on it. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it- OEM for me ( no experience with the NAPA Filter- it may be OK- Thanks- Al Edited April 29, 2016 by illinilefttackle 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #12 Posted April 29, 2016 OEM is probably always going to be the best choice but I didn't want to order one and wait on it to come in...I run NAPA filters on everything else so I just stopped in and grabbed one on my way out of town the other day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,518 #13 Posted April 29, 2016 NAPA filters are WIX. I use 'em all the time, never had a problem. NAPA is just a few minutes away too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
