You also need to look up the specs.
Just because it fits, doesn't mean better.

I would call rural king, tell them the p/n filter you want and have them find the micron rating.

Well I called them and they replied that "it filters the same as factory specs" which I think is a load of crap answer honestly. So I did some more searching on the Donaldson filter and I read a couple of threads on some other sites where some questioned whether it's increased micron filtration would restrict oil flow in our engines. Anyone here use one of those regularly? I read enough positive reviews from psd users of it keeping the oil more "honey" colored then pure black and a couple of idi users said the same, but I always like to get a couple of thumbs up from here as well before I experiment. Especially when nothing is broken and I'm only shooting for more improvements.

Well that sucks, I would've pushed for a micron rating and told them that was a bs answer just to get my off the phone lol. I've read some people had higher oil pressure with those Donaldsons but I don't have personal experience with them yet
