Oil Filter Again

[Speed]

Hi all;

I finally came up with the official original 1945 part number for that oil filter nobody seems to have a listing for.

"485GB145A"

If anybody out there has a book to cross reference it to another brand (WIX,Fleetguard,Luberfiner,NAPA)I'd really appreciate it. I know Packer's planning to get me the number off'n his Fire Truck Sunday, but if I can pull up a number tomorrow (Saturday) I may be able to get that done early so I can take it out Monday AM for some estimates for a few things I probably can't afford anyway.

BTW-Does there exist a book of seal numbers for such things as the pinion seal for my Mack CR23-892-34 axle,or seals for Brown-Lipe transmissions,or a pinion seal for my '54 GMC 353 vacuum 2 speed axle? Those are the remaining parts I haven't been able to track down.

Anyway-thanks for any help you can throw this way.

Hey Speed, Here's a link to SKF's eCatalogs: http://www.vsm.skf.com/en-US/Catalog/ecatalogs.aspx

Speed,,,my A has a NAPA oil filter number 1006 or 1009. I can't remember which but will post the correct one on Monday. If you are able to get a seal out without destroying it, you should be able to read the numbers on the steel section. It could be Timken or Chicago Rawhide (CR).

Hi Greg;

I bought that 1006 at NAPA here in Elko when I was going down to get the truck,but it's too small to work. I even went to the Reno NAPA and had 'em look it up,and they came up with the same flter. That's the one NAPA's books show as correct. I could almost fit 2 of 'em in the housing,and the outside diameter is about an inch too small.

I probably will have to pull the seals to get the right ones. I was hoping to have the parts at hand when I pull it apart so I wouldn't be tying up the alley for more than 12 hours. (There's several small houses on down that use the alley for primary access.)

I never thought of SKF;-I'll give that a shot and see what I can find.

Thanks to both of you!

Maybe it had the wrong filter in it when I got it....
