    Coolant Filter Yes or No

    That is possible. The units they were ordered for are very large stationary mixing machines they used 4 in a series for each fluid coolant hydro and oil.

    FMTV High Speed Gears

    On the alison 1000 it takes a valve body change to get the 6 speed. The rumor used to be it was all in the programing. But it takes a vb change and reflash the tcm. as for the 500 series trans or 2000-4000 series im not sure about. I would assume vb replacement or mods are a must to utilize...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    You are correct the nipples are jic swivels. And the brass is npt. While i would NEVER recommend them being used together under high pressures. they will be more than fine under the pressures a coolant system sees. Thread sealant is key on the joint, but the jic flare end buts perfectly against...
