Finally was able to get the remote oil filter setup together. The biggest issue was, believe it or not, finding a threaded male union that is M20x1.5 on both sides.
I ended up having to order a hydraulic bulkhead connector for $30 with shipping. Cut off the long side, clean up the thread that I cut, then drill out the pass through hole as it was only about 3/8”. I took it up to 1/2” which is greater than or equal to the smallest orifice in the fittings/filter head anyway. Once that was done, the hoses were routed to the remote filter head location on the driver side inner fender. This is a good spot as there will be some protection from flying rocks etc provided by the inner fender itself. It also give enough vertical clearance I can get a larger than stock filter in there such as an FL1A or larger

Hey why pay three times as much for crap that lasts 1.5 times as long?

These were my last three Bauer purchases, and I'd recommend them all. I also bought the cordless shop vac earlier this year, but it sucks (no pun intended i wouldn't recommend it).

I have a drill, 3/8 impact, 4 inch angle grinder, and the corded surface conditioner in Bauer. Can’t complain about any of them. I do wanna pick up the battery powered ratchet though

My only regret is not buying the cordless ratchet sooner. Should've bought one years ago. I'm using my 3/8 impact way less now.
