GOOD INFORMATION, but the best way to determine what filter you need is to measure the can. The filter assemblies were NOT made by MoPar but by Fram. This is true for ALL Makes. I find that over the years many filters were switched or added or another engine was placed in a vehicle with a completely different filter assembly and when you look up the filter for a 1950 and you have a 1960 engine in it, or an industrial, you get pissed that the guy sold you the wrong filter. Measure the CAN!! Check the lid if it has a perferated cup attached to it you need a sock element if it has a spring and washer were the bolt goes though it takes a can element. Take your measurements to the NAPA store and check the measurements with the book they are ALL listed for every filter that NAPA sells. This is true for ALL filter makers not just NAPA>
