Air filter a little too tall
Hello all,
As i dial in the truck for the coming summer one thing Bugs me is my air filter is ~1/4" too tall and the lid sits up off the air cleaner base and makes it louder than it needs to be. I am running a WIX 42098 that measures 3.480" I am hoping if I find one ~3.250" it will suppress some of the carb/air noise. Every listing has it spec'd at 3.5 inches Truck is noisy enough and anything to keep the wife more happy on trips the better. |

Split a 5/16 inch vac hose and slide it over the lip all the way around. That’ll take up that gap.

Re: Air filter a little too tall
I measured a Fram CA326 and it measures much the same as that WIX. What does the sticker on the side of the housing call for? Any chance that housing is a transplant?
