Post by: Robert Cassin on November 27, 2017, 04:35:25 PM
Hi all. looking for a period correct fuel filter. Any suggestions? and where is the correct mounting location? I have seen them under the beast and right on the carb? Thanks, Rob

Both filters are correct. The larger AC T-2 filter is used my numerous vehicles and is mounted on the frame. This was a later ad on item. You can get new reproduction ones with modern paper elements from companies like Ron Fitzpatrick Jeep Parts. See this link http://halftrackinfo.com/index.php?topic=1521.0. The smaller one on the carb is a Zenith fuel filter, same as used on Harley Davidson Motorcycles. I used a later AC fuel filter from the 50's that is a glass bowl with a paper element. These are reproduced and can be found at any hot rod shop. The small Zenith filters can be found on eBay by several sellers.
