Best Choice for Truck RAM

This CA11960 filter was recommended by Fram Support as an alternative to the CA9401 which was redesigned last year to have a smaller profile (filter media pleat height). This filter arrived like new but tattered and stained. The filter media pleats are slightly longer than the originals, but will easily fit 4th Gen RAM 1500. This filter is better suited for a truck than the Fram recommended and revised CA9401.

Fits my 2018 Ecodiesel

Fits very well - as others have noted the gaskets seem a bit larger and tighter when trying to put the lid back on but I see it as fine to thing less chance for air to bypass the seal. The only reason for 4/5 stars and not a full 5 is that the workmanship isn't top notch. The gaps between rows of paper filter media were uneven and the glue holding them together didn't reach the end of the filter element on one side, but I doubt this will affect the function of the filter in any way.

Not for EcoDiesel with oil separator

Seems to be of decent quality but if you have an EcoDiesel and use an oil separator you can throw away this filter. As soon as I installed this filter, I started getting crankcase ventilation shut off codes. I think the sensor detected an airflow/pressure drop due to the filter and gave a code. Perhaps this code would not have appeared if I had not used a trap (additional resistance and longer pipe path for gases). code stopped. Just food for thought if you're using Hook on 3.0. This filter…

Pros
  • For cars
Cons
  • Some bugs
