Detailed Description

Wix Part Number 58180 is an automatic transmission filter kit engineered for service on select Ford vans and Super Duty trucks. The filter design uses application-specific sealing components and a sealed assembly to help ensure fluid passes through the filtration media rather than around it. This makes it a practical choice for maintaining transmission cleanliness in vehicles such as the Ford E-350 Super Duty and Ford F-250 Super Duty, where proper fluid filtration is important to transmission performance.
