Filter for Aux. Tank

Been searching for over an hour and can't seem to find much on filter setups for aux. tanks. I am getting ready to order an in-bed tank from Northern.

What are you guys running and more importantly where is the best place to get?

Thanks

I just finished mine. I used a Baldwin BF914 which includes the body and a spin on filter. Replacement filter is BF915. I called the factory and they said the filter was 9 microns. Plumbed it in line with a shut off valve. Tapped into the vent line to fill the tank. Seems to be working well.

One reason I liked this filter was that the housing was pre drilled and threaded so I could just hang it from an "L" bracket which I attached to box cross member.

Thanks.

Did some more searching and found the Racor 120bs seems the most popular. Just ordered mine from Fleet National.

Need to decide on tank size. Probably go with the RDS 91 gallon combo.

Just need to measure distance between stacks and wheel hump. Hope it fits....

Just make sure you leave enough room for the tank outlet if it is on the end of the tank and that the tabs for fastening to your box are in the right position.
