I searched for anything about this before posting up but didn't really see anything specific about it.

Wanted to know if anyone is running a larger capacity filter and if so which one?

I get Mann 940/25 filters for my VW tdi diesels and noticed it's almost identical in seal size and that threads are the same. Capacity is quite a bit more than standard filters but I believe it will fit in the space.

If you are doing something else please post up what you are doing.

Thanks

I use the motorcraft FL1A it fits all of the magnum engines and the my Jeep 4.0.

 

Yah, it fits the engine. Alas, my 1988 Dakota has a frame rail in the way of it ...

Ralph I'm not finding a FL300A, only the FL300, which looks about like it's the same as the Delco gold I've been using on the Dak.

The Mann 940/25 is a full 1" longer than the FL1A, I still don't think there's any reason why it won't fit on 4x2 but before I commit to using it I'll do a test fitting. I'm switching over to synth this next change and it's just about time to do it.

If the Mann filter fits that means that for three vehicles I only need to stock one filter. Actually that would cover 4 vehicles but hopefully the fourth is going away...

I use the higher quality option from NAPA which is noticeably fatter than the cheaper filter.
