RevMax Steel 68RFE Transmission Spin On Filter Screw Upgrade.
This is a must due upgrade to any 68RFE whether it be a stock transmission or upgraded. This is just as important as keeping the fluid level correct because if the filter loosens and falls off, complete transmission failure will occur.
The stock screw is cheap plastic and cannot be properly tightened to insure that it doesn't loosen up over time. If overtightened the plastic screw will break. We recommend replacing the factory plastic screw immediately when purchasing a new or used truck regardless of the mileage. The steel screw can be used again and again during each filter change.

Definitely not from Rev Max, which was the main reason why I purchased. Probably a china part. Charging $25 for a $2 part. Threads for the transmission side don’t look promising. Haven't installed yet, and probably won’t. Will update if I decide to use it.

Good upgrade from OEM. After the spin on filter in my 68rfe came loose and shutdown my trans, I upgraded to this part on the filter. It's not coming off again as u can put a bit more torque on the sealing without worrying about snapping the cheap OEM one.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if you increase line pressure to prevent Transmission failure. TWICE that I have used the stock plastic spin on filter screw and Twice did I have to replace the transmission. If you do not get the plastic spin-on filter on just right or too tight it can loosen up or better yet, FALL OFF IN THE PAN. The 2nd time did the most damage when it came off entirely on a drive and I lost all hydraulic pressure in the transmission which caused it to overheat. Not only did it overheat but all of the clutch material from the Torque Converter as well as metal fragments went everywhere. Even a little gap or looseness in the spin on filter and you lose all pressure in the transmission. This replacement is a VERY Important part and is worth the cost. Doesn't make sense why to use Plastic PVC material on a high pressure application... Even Spin On Engine oil filters use Metal Threads. I used thread locker blue to keep the Screw in the Transmission fitting so when I do another service I just screw off the Spin on Filter and the metal thread is already there just like a engine oil adapter. Of course, do take the plastic screw off the new filter that you get and keep it far far away from your transmission. Since this is an upgrade from the plastic, I was able to torque the filter down a little more to around 20 Foot pounds. Been 500+ miles and no problems since.BE SURE on first application to screw the metal piece into the spin on filter tight first before screwing into the transmission. If you use Thread locker only use it on the side that screws into the transmission (Longer Side). That way once you torque it down initially, it should be set for next service whether you hand tighten or torque wrench down.
