    installation pre fuel filter bracket for NX

    I thought I had seen a photo of an installation of a pre fuel filter into an NX on the passenger side showing a mounting bracket. I've done the searches but can't find what I'm looking for. Can anybody who has mounted a pre filter post a photo of their installation especially the bracket used and where it's mounted. Many thanks.

    This is how I mounted mine on NX. Used Donaldson 3 Micron and fitted after main filter. Only have to drill hole in bracket.

        Exactly the same for the NW. Simple to make yourself.

            Josh why are you running the 3 micron before the main filter??????? Look at Dicko's and mine are both after the main filter as recommended.

                I had a discussion last week with a diesel mechanic mate who said that he was about to install one on his NS before the main oem filter. I asked why? He said that as it had a water trap it was better to install before the factory filter. Now when I worked as a foreman in a quarry many, many moons ago, one of my accountabilities and duties was to ensure that all aggregate produced met specifications as required by the Vic and NSW road boards for the building of the Hume Hwy. Every screen started as coarse and ended with a fine filter. Common sense and the only way to effectively filter any material to produce a quality product. Long story short my mate is now putting his post factory as he sees the logic.

                        Donaldson P551615 Bracket using existing Fuel Filter mounting bolts

                        HI Guys

                        This is another version of Donaldson installation as secondary filter.

                          Came with the Donaldson kit. It's 9.5mm Fuel/Emission Hose. EFI hose is fine. But I did buy another 90 deg fitting. Comes with one 90 and a straight.

                            Looks like I had made a bracket after all...Attached to bolts holding up the MM fuel filter. Simple to make.

                              Dicko looks like you have your Provent mounted on LHS. Got a photo of how its mounted. I still trying to find a spot for mine.
