What motor are you wanting to it your oil filter to? 7.3?, 6.0?, ....?
For the 7.3 OEM part is E4TZ-6731-A, Pennizol # PZI-48, FRAM # PH3786 and WIX # 51734, there are many others.

Oil Filters

Hi Blue
I have a 2012 Ford F 450 with the 6.7lt turbo diesel and i have been buying the motorcraft filter out of America, but the freight can be quiet expensive hence my question can we buy a similar filter in Australia.
Cheers
Chris

I personally use Motorcraft - there was a study on the site here previously that they did the best filtration. I order 6 at a time when I am over in the states on holidays which saves on freight. I am not aware of a locally sourced alternative.

These guys are good for these kind of parts however: Ford F Series Truck Parts & Truck Accessories

On edit: Donaldson offer a replacement, not sure of cost, but you should be able to source it in Oz. Part number: P502503
