Message: [QUOTE="Tom S, post: 362779, member: 623"] I decided to run Caterpillar filters on the pre pump side as well. I picked two different ones the 117-4089 which is a 150 micron filter water separator.

[IMG]http://powerstrokenation.com/photopost/data/506/medium/DSCN0482.JPG[/IMG] I had to modify the Stanadyne base to fit the keyway arrangement of the cat filters. I used a dremel tool and a rotary tool to cut in two new keyways. This was easy to do since the base is aluminum.

The photo shows Stanadyne 34957 150 watt heater that goes in the top of the filter base and has a built in thermostat.

[IMG]http://powerstrokenation.com/photopost/data/506/medium/DSCN0633.JPG[/IMG] I fabricated a bracket to mount the filters and pump inside the frame just aft of the transfer case. The angle bolts on the back side of the plate and then the angle sits on the flange of the frame rail.

[IMG]http://powerstrokenation.com/photopost/data/506/medium/DSC024621.JPG[/IMG] I used ABA damage free hose clamps at all connections. These do not have slots in the band to dig into the hose. The edges of the bands also have a radius that does not cut into the hose. [IMG]http://powerstrokenation.com/photopost/data/506/medium/DSC02480.JPG[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
