I ran the Fleetguard FF5320 (5 micron even though it's labelled 2 micron) for years until I found out that the Donaldson P551313 (2-3 micron)was better.

The Fleetguard FF5320 is readily stocked & available at Cummins in Calgary if you are in a pinch.. About $20 each the last time I bought one.

Thanks everyone. I found the P551313 on the internet for $6.50 each. Can't remember the site at the moment. I'll find it again some day and post it for you guys. Just found it. "Ryder Fleet Products"

FYI---if you are going to piece together your own kit the FB1311 Baldwin fuel base is $50.47each at Aklands in Calgary(this is with my company/work discount).I will probable tackle this in the spring----just sourcing out parts/costs now.Hope this helps.DW----PS earlier in another post it was stated that the base was $20.00----is this correct and where to buy at this price,cause i double checked and bases are over $50bucks here---USA around $27-$35 bucks.

I've purchased about 6 of these over the last couple of years, and never over $30. The price of $20 came from somebody who had just purchased one which we installed. He did have a company discount though.

Your price of $50 is high, so they must have taken a big jump. May want to check places like Finning, FGI, any of the big truck places...

I went and checked today. The list price is about $51. Depending on the various company affiliations, you can get it significantly lower...

An expensive (but nice) route is to get custom hydraulic lines made up. Works really slick.

Or use pushlock.
