Product Overview

The Derale Oil Filter Relocation Kit is engineered to reposition the oil filter away from cramped engine bays, providing a clear path for maintenance and reducing the risk of damage during service.

Weighing just 3.5 pounds, the kit adds minimal weight while delivering maximum functional benefit.

Usage

Designed for everyday automotive maintenance, this relocation kit is ideal for both hobbyist DIYers and professional technicians. It shines in scenarios where the factory‑mounted oil filter is obstructed by other components, such as in performance builds, off‑road vehicles, or engines with aftermarket accessories. By moving the filter to a more accessible spot, oil changes become faster, cleaner, and safer, reducing the chance of spills or accidental burns. The kit is suitable for a variety of makes and models that share the 20×1.5mm filter mounting pattern, making it a versatile addition to any garage.
