You are welcome. I need to get a filter cutter. The old hacksaw really did a number on it.Very nice photos and filter. thank You
Bonus pics. Seems to no longer have a rubber gasket between end cap and bypass valve. View attachment 208255View attachment 208256View attachment 208257

It was a dense fiber gasket, not rubber. Weird that this is an OG and no more base plate gasket for the leaf spring. Another cost cutter along the way it seems. Or maybe it's just an OG Titanium thing.Bonus pics. Seems to no longer have a rubber gasket between end cap and bypass valve.
Lots of Longacre style filter cutters on eBay for $20 - $25 with free shipping.I need to get a filter cutter. The old hacksaw really did a number on it.

Don't see it on the Endurance either. The Ultra he's showing is an OG, and it does have the end cap gasket at time 6:08.Zee: do the Fram endurance use that fiber gasket? I haven’t paid attention. I Thank You

Good to know! Thankshey, i’m a hand model now.
but for OG titanium’s it’s a toss up on if they got the leaf spring gasket. i’ve cut 3 so far and only one filter had the gasket. when 12k miles is up on the woman’s car i’ll cut it open. same OG 3593a went on it.
