OK, I guess I will start this forum also. My two Ingersoll tractors are hydraulic driven. Not a hydrstac trans like most tractors, but true hydraulic. It uses about 12 qts of 15w40 motor oil instead of hydro fluid. Now here’s my problem. There is no filter in the system. With the dusty envroment it lives in, and with the detachable hydro powered attachments there is a lot of chances to get dirt in there.. I would like to put a filter into the system. Now here’s the big problem, I don’t have a lot of room. The return line is ¾” and runs from the cooler in front, to the tank right behind the motor. This is only about 2.5ft. It is low on the tractor near where the lift rod goes to the front attachments, so size is a big factor. Any ideas? Any sources for a small filter that may work? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me
