Filter Question

I am in the process of changing my fuel and oil filter. My local parts store has Fram and Purolator for both. Are these filters ok for my 2006. I dont know what filters Cummins has approved for this application.

I thought all Cummins motors for Dodge trucks were the same?

Can you cross-refrence your factory one to the new one?

I meant they have both the oil and fuel filters in Fram and Purolator not two different motors.

Check out http://cumminsfiltration.com/en/index.shtml They'll be able to direct you to a local source for Fleetgurad (Cummins brand) oil, fuel, and air filters.

Or, you could order from http://genosgarage.com/ like many of us do.

Most people have a NAPA store within 10 miles. Your area shows to have one in Millersville. NAPA sells a NAPA Gold 7620XE oil filter that is high quality.
