Default Hey 4+3 owners!

Are you looking for the impossible to find rubber grommet that goes on the Overdrive Transmission filter? It's no longer available when you get the replacement filters. And you MUST have it for the replacement filter. Re-using the old grommet over and over will only last so long. Remember the filter and fluid should be changed at least once a year or every 10,000 miles. Maybe less. I found them! You can get them, as I just did, from McMaster-Carr. Phone #330-995-5500 in Aurora, Ohio. Part #1061T58. Exact fit for these filters. These are red silicone, chemical resistant high temperature grommets designed for this type application. Pack of 5 for $8.12. DO NOT BUY the plain black rubber grommets that some places sell! They won't hold up to the cold/high heat or transmission fluid without falling apart in your transmission filter pan. That spells disaster for the O/D unit.
