Tranny filter sucked thin? What could it be?

[terrawombat]

Sucked thin? Like it collapsed on itself?

[NewfieMJ]

:hmm: I think I need a picture . I can't see how it can collapse :???:

[bthomps875]

as in the filter it self was sucked up and only the metal frame was left i will post pics tonight thanks

[Automan2164]

Could it have overheated really bad and melted the plastic, leaving only the metal frame?

 

Rob :dunno:

[bthomps875]

it is very possible ive just never seen anything like it

[dfreeman616]

they have a very thin filter, it's different from most filters you'll see.

[bthomps875]

its my buddys jeep and as rob said it over heated and the filters are very thin but i guess now either way the transmission is blown it only has reverse now and sorry about the pics i wasnt able to get them last night thanks

id say its a cheap filter they are made from metal and cotton mesh no plastic to it .its the same filter that 904 and 727s use . ive never seen one suck thru ive seen them plug up when the transmission is going bad and the car won't move to you change it.

[bthomps875]

that looks thin should look more red than gray go get a good filter and it should be fine.

well ha it looks thin cause theres nothing left and with the transmission only having reverse and nothing for drive i think it is just blown but he says when he puts it in drive the transmission doesnt make any noise or anything so who knows.... :dunno:
