Dick,
Your chassis maker chooses the number and location of the filters.
You could have two, or just one. VERY CRITICAL DIFFERENCE!
If two, the first is a course filter element (10-30 micron) and the second a fine filter element (2-5 micron).
So, though the filter elements all fit the same filter base (i.e. you can get a 2 or a 30 micron element to fit the same filter base) using the wrong one can lead to problems. Worse case is if you have a single filter and fit the primary filter for a two filter system. Instead of filtering to 2 microns, you are filtering only to 30 microns-- that is like throwing rocks at the injectors.
So, check with your chassis manufacturer with your VIN.
