I tried like you going to an IH dealer, and the fleetguard is all they stock, now. Even had the IH part number mentioned here.

Yeah, doesn't make much sense. I guess I need another trip to return it! Is anything easy with this truck? (Well the coolant filter was, so that is good. haha)

For those of you who are unable to get them locally you have a few options...

As already mentioned there is DieselFiltersOnline.com. If you choose that route, make sure you go with the Racor filters over the Motorcraft. No need to spend extra bucks on a fancy box.

Ford 6.0 Liter Turbo Diesel Racor PFF-4604 Fuel/Water Seperator Filters(PFF4604): Pick Up & Excursion-Replaces Motorcraft FD-4604

Then there is NationalFleetParts.com (aka DieselFiltersOnline.com) who carries all the same filters we need. They are a few pennies cheaper on all the filters and the shipping charges are the same.

[PFF-4604]Racor fuel filters-Ford 6.0 Liter diesels Pick up Trucks-PFF4604(Replaces FD4604) - National Fleet Parts,Inc.

[PFL-2016]Racor oil filter-Ford 6.0 and 6.4L diesels - National Fleet Parts,Inc.

$49.95 for a genuine Motorcraft air filter.

[FA-1778]Motorcraft Powercore air filter-Ford 6 liter diesel pick up trucks(FA1778)-4C3Z-9601-AA - National Fleet Parts,Inc.

[NTZ-09C06B]NTZ Ford transmission filter with O-ring(replaces FT145) - National Fleet Parts,Inc.

If you are just ordering a fuel filter, the best I have found online is PartsCentralUSA.com who has the International filters @ $28.37 + shipping.

I replaced mine tonight!
I found them at the local ABC auto but they wanted 72.00.
I went to the ford house and paid 59.00

As someone stated, should have a "wrap" around the big filter and I noticed that the small filter was longer than the WIX that was pulled out. ( that can't be good!)

I will never use anything but Motorcraft, Racor, or IH after studying it out.
