Those died off with the carburetor and alternator repair shops. If you do find one, it is usually some chain smoking old guy that is halfway into his daily 12pack of PBR working out of his now home garage using up his spares that do not support anything made past 1985 and is only open on...

There is nothing wrong with them until something is wrong with them. If you never cut and inspect your filters, you may never know when a filter has failed in some regard of either torn filter media and/or compromised ADBV. I do not rip open every filter I have removed, but I do have more than...

Yeah, seems non traditional to be selling them but I can see it being a "while I am here" add on purchase for both the residential consumer and contractors.

Got in today a case of Carquest Red R84502MP (Premium Guard) filters today. Was a Ebay purchase that I am into for $2 per filter.

Be interesting to see if the removed FE's start showing up on RockAuto?

I know on the Gladiator forums and the EcoDiesel they use, Doc's Diesel kind of got a larger following during COVID supply chain issues that plagued the OEM MOPAR filters being out of stock to the point that dealerships were turning away doing oil changes. For many, Doc's Diesel was the only...

Looks good. Minus knowing what the efficiency numbers are, that filter checks a lot boxes for me in terms of construction methods used.

For the Jeep Gladiator/Wrangler factory dry fill is 9.5 quarts (9 liters). On a overnight cold vehicle, I have had 5.5 quarts drain out and another time 6.5 quarts drain out but about the same went back in. The sump to the fill port will hold about 4 quarts with the rest is what has drained back...

Have had multiple Wranglers and Gladiators with the license built version of that transmission. I usually do a 30K mile fluid and filter service at first and then every 60K after that. While in warranty, I would recommend staying with a licensed ZF 8/9 speed fluid like the ZF or Ravenol brand...

Walk into any HD dealership and you will find the lionshare of the clothes and HD official accessories and performance parts are made overseas, Most will not care.

The problem is and especially any made by Champion Labs, the various private labels they make for come and go and even with some private labels, they can source from two different makers. List could be outdated next week or a private label is blacklisted but depends on SKU.

Probably. They list one of my go to DENSO 150-2021 filters as made in Canada. No clue where they got that and has not been corrected in years.

Point taken. Such things rarely bother me but can see how it affects others.

That is some might fine ad copy right there.

I have the 1/4' and 3/8" ones and only recall ever using the 1/4" once maybe 6-7 years ago. Quite honestly, I forget they are there and have yet to have a situation were only that tool got me out of a jam.

So nothing should ever change?

You have the cleanest C&P.

It is serviceable, just a change in construction methods. The whole FRAM lineup is in a state of flux.

There is a $1.08 saving when compared to current Walmart pricing of gallon T4 but not the 5 gallon buckets. 11ea 5 gallon buckets of T4 is currently $781 ($71ea).

I think you are conflating it a bit.
