ZF trans filter

Post by Slackwater »

I have a 2004 31TE with the 6CTA 450hp engine and ZF280 1A trans. I want to change the trans fluid and clean the filter at the end of this season. How on earth do you get to the filter way down there by the output coupling? I can’t even see it much less work on it.

It comes out the top. I just did mine on my Silverton and I know the Albin is tighter. I had to get in all sorts of positions for sure. Maybe a hired gun is the answer.
