Got 'er done. I picked up another nylon strap wrench http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/kd-to...22981209-P
and with a 24" ratchet and long extension was able to get it off. Glad I did the hydraulic filter before I did the coolant filter. I was able to re-use the hydraulic fluid.
FYI: the tank holds about 5 gallons or so. So if you haven't changed the filter yet, get a big clean bucket.
Steve, that tool looks like it would have done a much better job. But I'm about as remote as you are right now so had to get what was available.
Just ordered one on Amazon Prime so I'll have it when I do the engine oil. And ordered a couple remote air tank drains too.
