Default M52 air filter.

I just opened the new to me M52's airfilter canaster, found a K&N style filter. Has anybody seen these before? And has anyone found one of these in a 2 1/2 ton? I'll try to upload the photo's from my phone.

Ken I have seen both of those filters in the 5ton filter housings. What do you need to know?

I was wondering if anybody had the filter number from K&N? Or had a catoulage to look the number up from the sizes. This filter is in pretty good shape. I'd just like to get one for the other truck and mabye my M35. Have you tried cleaning one of these yet?

There has been some proven bad press about K&N not filtering enough dirt out. Might want to look into that. Anyway, I'd look on their website.

As per PS magazine, wash and reuse your filters.
(For good resolution, right click and "Open link in new window")
