oil fiter

[LRO]

Hi
How can i change the paper element filter on the 4bd1 for the other filter. And can the twin filter setup i have seen bolt straight on to the engine. ( does this answer my first question)

The single spin-on filter housing is a different part. The part number is 8944457421. I don't know of a component that converts a cartridge filter housing to take spon-on filters.

From what I've read the twin spin-on filter housing requires a spacer btw the housing and the block to ensure the filters do not hit the front drive shaft.

CHT from the forum was able to source one fairly recently.

You do need a spacer for the twin housing, also for the top of the oil pipe. If you are changing from the paper housing to a twin, you will also need a different oil pipe. The twins are standard on the 4BD1turbo. I made my own spacers, but I only guessed the distance they needed to come out from the block. I made them 50mm, but my prop shaft can still just hit the bottom oil filter at full compression of the suspension. The army have spacers on the Perenties so I'm sure they are available as a part. I would be interested to know the dimensions of them.
You will also need some high tensile threaded rod to reach through the bottom 2 holes of the housing and spacer to the block.
