If aftermarket filter is not recommended, what filter could I buy and where?
Thank you all.

P.D.: the brand of the filter I found and I managed to buy is HASTINGS

It has been suggested to me to take the output pipe from the transmission, through a filter, then the aftermarket cooler (air/oil), then the stock cooler (water/oil), then back to the transmission.
Is this a sensible course of action?

I assume the internal filter in the transmission of the '92 was changed both times the transmission was rebuilt. I haven't changed the internal filter in the '94. I know the fluid is circulating OK so presumably the filter is not clogged up.
