Smile Which fuel filter?

2007 6.7L turbo diesel

Very simple question: Which fuel filter am I looking for? I see several options out there. Is there something close to consensus, or is this going to become a complicated decision?

Thanks.

The link says that this is for the 5.9L. I have the 6.7L, I assume they use a different fuel filter?

X2 on the Baldwin filter. I use the 7977 but keep in mind that I have a 5.9. I don't know if Baldwin has a fuel filter for the 6.7.....HTH

Good catch. In your original post it said "07 6.7L" and I had keyed in on the "07" in which the 5.9s were installed. The 6.7s were installed in the 07.5year model. Here is a link so you can have a look at what Geno's has to offer for the 07.5 - 6.7L engines. Hope it helps.
