Default Two types of oil filters Ford CMP

Hi Tony,

Glad that I had that disclaimer of two types. I have two of the longer filter cannisters and haven't seen the other type. I know the 8BA filters were shorter and fatter and easy to obtain. My type took a lot of digging around to find.

Cheers,

Jacques

The Filter housing shown above in the Jeep is the Standard Quartermaster Corps bypass filter of the day.It was fitted to Jeeps, Dodges, and I don't know what else?
It has "Military standard filter" printed around the rim of the lid. (and purolator etc) There is another slightly smaller one, as I recall, with something about "junior" written on it. Is that relevant?

Default Oil filters

Back in the good old dayswe sold genuine Ford parts we had A51A 6727 and A51T for most s/v trucks. both had the same I/D and O/D but the A51T one was higher (taller ).
I have 2 large Fleetgaud books here but they do not seem to cater for things as old as S/V Fords. ... Or Australianised part numbers.

Default Filtering information

Here's the other one on a truck I have outside. I should sit them side by side.

It is longer than the one now on the truck.

More progress - that bloody filtering system is finally connected. With correct internal filter cartridge. Lines and brass connections sorted and hooked up.
