Filter suggestion for 09 Jeep Wrangler

[mikeintx]

I am trying to decide on a good filter for my 09 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. It has a 3.8L V6 OHV engine. The filter is mounted horizontally on the engine. OCI is 6K.

What number? I don't like dome end bypasses. If it is available in an Ecore, I would go with an ST or other Champ brand. Thread end bypass and American made by an American company.

I am pretty well convinced oil filters do very little and no use buying a better one. Not even sure the done end bypass hurts that much.

Purolator Premium (not gold).

NAPA Gold, Purolator PureOne, Mopar, or Motorcraft. Any will work great, just stay away from FRAM (except for Extended Guard)

What's your annual mileage?
Do you intend to change it every time?

This is the FL300/PH16 size 3/4-16 thread filter ..the basic one size that fit most MOPAR'S for decades.

Purolator of any color and I believe (not sure), that the premium is now called "classic".

Check and see who makes the Mopar filter. The current batch for my Jeep Patriot are Pure One's rebranded, and I get then cheaper at the dealer which is pretty crazy.

ST or Acdelco are good too.

Hey guys...time for next oil change. Any new ideas on filters?

I was thinking of using a Motorcraft FL400s.
I have considered getting a master pack of NAPA ProSelects

Are there any other Master Packs available?

I would recommend the Mopar filter, the Motorcraft would also work well.
