Truck came in for low oil pressure after a recent service. Idle was 20lbs should be north of 50.
Pulled out the spinner filter and found the lower bearing was unscrewed and coming apart. Installed the new bearing assembly and a new oil spinner, got 65lbs at idle.
Truck had an aftermarket filter, the aftermarket filters can spin too fast causing premature bearing failure. Havent seen one fail that only uses OEM filters.
Oem black filter on the left.
