Ball valves on Coolant Filter?
So I got a coolant filter for my Scursion, got it installed and noticed a leak out of one of the hoses that threads in to the block of the coolant filter. After tightening it down and re- tefloning it, it still had a small leak. Checked on it last night, as I am heading across country Thurs and noticed the pressure clamp had come loose and the hose was basically falling off. So I turned off the ball valve (which promptly broke as well) and then hose clamped the hose on (At least I fixed the leak!)
Question is, what size is that ball valve that generally goes on there? I cant take this on off and take it in to the store with me to match it up because I need to drive the truck!
I know pics or it didn't happen
Here's the pressure fitting that fell off
And here is the lovely broken ball valve.

I dunno, and if nobody else does, you can try and contact Bob at Dieselsite and ask him.

Got mine off Amazon and they fit. I have yet to put my filter and parts in the truck to see if they can handle the job.

Only problem will be finding those cut off valves. I toured with modifying things s bit and then, thankfully, I remembered how well that usually DOESN'T work.

I took my block valve off and just ran the hose into the filter housing. It started leaking and I did not have time to order/shop for another one.
