Caterpillar filters for oil bypass?
Hey guys. Im using all CAT filters when i get my motor back in and figured since I'm doing my efuel and the international pump with filter, id add a bypass oil filtration system to round it out. Found the CAT number for the main filter, but I'm wondering if anyone has a part number for a CAT oil bypass filter? 2 micron rating is preferred, but wouldn't mind a little smaller should that be the case. Also if anyone knows of a filter base that will fit it that'd be great too.

You could always get ahold of the parts department of a cat dealer and ask them for some filter options and filter heads. It's none of my business but is there a reason it has to be CAT? There's plenty of options fleetguard makes a 2 in 1 filter. You could remote mount something like that.

Thanks!
Im going with CAT filters because i like their design. I forget what the actual term is but they are graduated filters, so as the fluid goes through the media it gets filtered down more and more. And, I have a CAT dealer 15 minutes from me so it'd be easy to get all my filters there.
I didn't even think of them having that. Ill give em a call monday, thank you.
