Best/cheapest filter source

Hey guys, the time has come to restock on racor fuel filters and I should probably break down and replace the air filter as well whether she needs it or not. My FF stock ran out. The last time I ordered them was through dieselfiltersonline. I was wondering if there is a better source these days or if dieselfiltersonline is still the best source. The truck is an 05 super duty, 6.0.

Thanks, T

I built 2 shopping carts for filter just the other day. One from Riff Raff Diesel and one on Dieselfiltersonline.

1 oil filter, 2 fuel filter sets and a Tranny filter.

Diesel filters was lower, but, shipping made it just a little more expensive than Riff Raff with the shipping on theirs.

So, depending on where you live, shipping might be the issue for small orders.

I went with Riff Raff for a few reasons. One, they are located closer. Two, their service is great and Three, they are Ford enthusiasts.

I place an annual order with Dieselfiltersonline for both my Superduties that includes every maintenance item I will need for the whole year, that makes it easy to meet the $250 amount for free shipping.

I get mine from Riffraff Diesel, great service, and they actually support our industry not just sell a part because it has the best markup. On almost everything they beat Dieselfiltersonline, and they don't sell the knock off chinese stuff others do and try and pass it as OE.

You don't want to use wix filters on a 6 liter

Edit: $39.19 + 8.4% tax = $42.49 (with discount code provided) + a little over a gallon of diesel. Currently out of stock.

+ my time.

On Amazon you can get a discount on certain things if you "subscribe" to regular deliveries, right now 3 gallons of T6 and 2 gallons of 5W20 Mobil1 shows up at my door every 4 months, with all the correct filters for three different vehicles.

I ordered a Racor fuel filter kit from dieselfiltersonline.com and the kit was $34.95 delivered via USPS to my post office box. Seems like I did ok.
