Its bout that time. Im gonna change out the oil myself too. What type of oil would be best for the 5.9L? Also, what type oil filter should I get? I'm new to alot of DIY so any help is much appreciated

 

I just use 10w30 dino oil of a reasonable quality. Pick a GOOD filter though..... I think there is a poll in the faq section for that??

 

I will look into that

 

Mopar filter's can be had at your local wally world for $6. I'm using Pennzoil this oil change, haven't found an oil it doesn't like yet, but I REFUSE to buy Havoline, it's crap....

 

I use Castrol GTX in all vehicles, well, except for my wifes 2012 civic, it's done at the dealer. Whichever oil you choose is up to you, just DO NOT get Fram filters.

 

Whats wrong with a fram filter?

 

don't judge too quick... my old chevy ran 300,000 on havoline and its still going.

 

Paper end caps and they tend to collapse. Youtube it. Theres plenty of vids. I have a Fram on mine right now. Didnt find out about them till after I put it on and I never knew about it before. I just never got around to changing it.

 

Ive got a stp on mine cause it was part of a package deal. Just wondering what the deal with the frams was

 

Basically, made like ****. Quality went waaaaayyyy down. I'll never get one again, even if its free.
