Oil Filter Relocation Kit for 3rd Gen Tacoma 3.5L V6 Engines (2016-2023)
Oil Filter Relocation Kit for 3rd Gen Tacoma 3.5L V6 Engines (2016-2023)
The 2nd Gen Tacoma V6 engines had a spin-on oil filter in an easy-to-access location. However, 3rd Gen Tacoma has a cartridge filter on the bottom of the engine, which is more difficult & messier to change than the spin-on filter. It is even harder to change if you have an aftermarket skid plate or a solid axle swap, and there is no way to run an aftermarket power steering pump with the stock filter assembly in the way. Trail-Gear has solved all of these issues with our new Oil Filter Relocation Kit for 3rd Gen Tacoma 3.5L V6 Engines.
This kit replaces the complicated, hard-to-access cartridge filter with a conventional spin-on oil filter located behind the front bumper. We replace the filter cartridge assembly with a machined aluminum manifold with #10 JIC fittings. The manifold connects to the remote filter housing and aluminum cooler with the SAE 100R6 Oil Lines with crimped-on fittings. The remote oil filter sits behind the front bumper, easily accessible yet safe from any rocks or road debris. The remote filter housing will accept the included genuine Toyota 2nd Gen Tacoma spin-on filter or a larger Wix 51085 for increased filtration. Stainless steel mounting brackets and all mounting hardware are included. The kit is entirely bolt-on and only requires a few holes drilled for installation. The kit can easily be installed in a single afternoon, and you can get back on the road and leave difficult oil changes behind forever.
We offer this as your choice of the complete kit or just the machined aluminum plate with gasket & fittings ready for you to add your own remote filter and oil lines.
