Has anyone made or tried to make a new filter screen for the hydraulic filter in the sump of a Jinma 254. Mine is an 04 model year. If you were successful just wondered what material you used to make the screen.

My factory strainer shook apart once, so I modified the downpipe inside the sump(welded elbow and threaded fitting) and put one of these on the end of the pipe laying horizontal along the bottom of the sump.

I did the same thing on my older JM354. The OEM was kinda of a paper mush when I tried to service it. I wound up making a new triangle block that bolt to to hydraulic case to be able to tap to 1-1/4" NPT I believe it was. bjr

You took it wrong sorry, its a figure of speech " Boy ole boy", it just does not make sense to "me " to try and reinvent the wheel over a $ 30.00 part, I understand if it was more expensive part.We try to keep all these tractor parts in stock so you don't have to worry about getting parts when you need them.These Jinma parts are still less than half the Cost of Kubota, John Deere, New Holland, ect.And we have them in stock and ship the same day in most cases.

I'm glad that you keep parts and I have bought many times from you. What got me to thinking in the first place was the new filter did not fit. When I called you, you told me to take the screen off and put it on the old shaft. I did and it worked great. My next thought was is there a screen material that I can buy and replace the same way if and when I need another one. A lot of owners have modified parts or purchased replacement parts at a auto parts store. There are a couple Jinma Parts dealers who have been very helpful to all of us and you are one of them Tommy.

Well there is nothing special about the screen. It is #100 wire mesh(approx 150 micron) and can be bought at many places. Mcmaster-Carr comes to mind but I am sure there are many other places if you google #100 wire mesh screen...
