    NAPA sells the Haldex air dryer desiccant cartridges for not to bad a price also I think Auto Zone also sells the back counter parts.

  • JMO, but I would ONLY use OE manufacturer parts for air system, not "replaces ........" components that may or may not be of good quality.

    Air brake and air suspension components are too expensive and too much of a safety issue to roll the dice to save a few bucks on air dryer parts.

    I also like OE manufacturer reman air dryers, as more than just the filter(s) are new.
  • Whenever you are looking for replacement parts, always check ebay. Often there will be a used OEM part, OEM parts new, and/or aftermarket.
  • There is one on E-Bay for $119.00. Put number in search and you will find many for less than the freightliner price.
  • Are you looking for the entire air dryer or just the desiccant cartridge for it?
    Several web sites sell the replacement desiccant for less than $100.00
  • ABC bus sales, MCI bus dealers or heavy duty truck parts supply stores might be starting places.
