Th-400 pickup extension

[mc1984ss]

I've got a cheap aftermarket pan on my th-400. Usually aftermarket pans come with a pickup extension this one did not. I would like to put one in, does anyone have a recommendation? Thanks in advance

I'd check with the pan manufacturer for something like that.

I have a plastic one you are welcome to.

A new metal oil filter pick up tube for the TH400 for the years late 1967-1998. Stock length for standard shallow pan. Measures 4 3/4 inches in length. Please compare length to your existing tube.

I had to think about this a second. The pan is deeper, holds more oil, has more surface area. But the dipstick and pickup should be the same as stock, though, right?

Sorry lil bowtie for the slow reply. I appreciate the offer but got one nearby for dirt cheap. Did you install the metal one?

Yes the dipstick remains stock height.
