I bought a new pan from my local Ford dealer and welded a 1/4" thread-o-let onto it for draining the fluid.In a few months,at 24k miles,i'll drop the current pan,change the filter and fluid,then reinstall this pan.I'm not done with it;I still need to clean it up,paint it,and install the brass plug.

 

where'd the magnet go

 

why didnt u just buy this? http://www.mag-hytec.com/store/index...36a555ec1955b9

 

I would think his way would be cheaper, also gave him a project to do and self made is always better than store bought...........when it works

 

The pan was only $20.00,new,from Ford,and i'm a pipefitter/welder by trade.........so,you do the math!

 

you going to make them and sell them?

 

Hmmmmmmm.......thats not a bad idea!

 

I'll powder coat them for you. I'd buy one too.

 

Hey, you do powder coating? Are you in Mesquite Texas?

 

Yes to both.

 

but them on ebay .....I'd buy one

 

Seriously dude, hit me up. These things would sell.

 

Ahhh the benefits of being in a professional trade that goes hand and hand with your truck.

I'm a aerospace metal plater... cadmium, chrome, gold, silver, nickel, electroless nickel, zinc, all the aluminum chromates under the sun, and a ton of other processes like electropolishing.
