I found a local supplier for rebuild kits for the Aluminum case 2-speed Ford-O-Matic that was used from '59 to '64. I haven't been able to find a filter. Anyone know of a source?

Not familiar with that transmission but if it's the brass screen type can you clean it and reuse?

It should be like mine (mile-o-matic), you just clean and re-use. Its more a screen than a filter.

I learned the hard way that it should have been cleaned. The problem is that the owner of the car was "helping" me by cleaning parts and he partly removed the brass screen before I could stop him. I might be able to fix it, but it is pretty well distorted by his efforts to remove it.
