I like Fleetguard Filters they are good filters. But I don't have a local dealer here for them. I can get the Cat Filterd here local from the Caterpillar dealership and from what I have read the Cat does out perform the Fleetguard.

Been using the GDP big line filter bracket kit for 6 years with the Cat 2 micron filter and because it designed for much larger engines it only needs to be changed maybe once a year.
