Filter Information
This PML pan works with stock filters. Example part numbers are: AC Delco TF234, Fram FT1057B, Fram FT1057C, Hastings TF60, Purolator P1194, Wix 58896
PML 200 4R transmission pans have filter supports so a filter extension is not needed.
The supports hold the filter at the same level as the stock pan. The distance from the bottom of the stock pan to the top of the flange is 2.4 to 2.6 inches. The distance from PML filter supports to the top of the flange is the same. The stock filter is about 4.8 inches tall.
This shows the inside of the stock and PML 200 4R pans:
Some customers have reported to us that a 700R4 filter may also work with our 200 4R transmission pans. PML does not have any experience with this or recommend this.
Filter information is provided for reference only. Installer should verify transmission, filter and fitment based on the individual vehicle.
Drain Location and Optional Temperature Sending Unit Machining
The PML 200 4R transmission pan has two bosses (thick areas) on the casting for drilling and tapping.
The location on the driver side is drilled and tapped for the drain. A magnetic drain plug is included with each pan.
The boss on the passenger side of the pan is not machined and optionally can be drilled and tapped for a temperature sending unit.
If you would like PML to drill and tap the boss, the machining charge is per hole. A plug for the hole is included.
