2016 Cummins, Fleetgaurd Air Filter any good?

Getting ready to replace the Air Filter, 2016 Cummins. I can get the OEM Mopar filter or the Fleetguard. The Fleetgaurd is a little cheaper. Any recommendations? I know Fleetguard makes good oil filters, but what about air filters?
  • Guess what, FleetGuard makes the MOPAR Air, oil and engine mount fuel filters. RAYCOR makes the under bed primary fuel filter for MOPAR.

    Stick with any of the above for the vest filtration!!!

    FleetGuard is Cummins filtration company.
  • Also, the Baldwin BF46031 chassis fuel filter is the same as the Racor/Mopar filter. Parker-Racor bought out Clarcor, Baldwins parent company, last year.
  • Additionally with my air intake on all my vehicles...just to be sure.
    You could have best filter on market but if unfiltered air is sneaking in somehow it won't matter how good filter is. I clean out air tubes real good and inspect for any dust that could of made it passed every filter change. Never had a problem with any fleetgaurd product. Except dealer that would only sell by case. So been buying online last couple 3 years

    Thanks much for the good info folks, much appreciated
  • Our company uses Fleetguard on our semis. We have Cummins and Detroit. However, they use Detroit fuel filters in clear site glass housing. Not sure if they carry FG or not, but look into Dieselfiltersonline for pricing. They are great for Motorcraft filters.

    That's where I purchase my motorcraft filters from. They are even cheaper than Walmart
  • I use Fleetguard for all my heavy equipment. Have for years. Quality stuff.
