Thinking
I work in SLC... but he's in Tooele (more specifically, Erda) in that video. I live in Tooele.
I have one in my cart.... I'll go get a link.
EDIT: Here's the link https://amzn.to/3WaJ6m4
I'm also wondering if that first Wix that I posted is a better choice due to matching the flow rate of the 51372/FL820S.
Thanks fellas.
Okay, so I would need the 3/4-16 for the frame filter mount (remote) leaving it metric at the motor.
Guess one should work out the difference in max flow rates between the two filters..the significance of anyway, before pulling the trigger.
Also Napa (Napa Gold oil filters) still uses WIX for just their oil filters...Donaldson for everything else now since the partnership..last year sometime.

So you select for a large filter w large ports or you run a pair to split the flow to halve the pressure each filter sees, which let's their bypasses stay shut up to maybe 4000 rpm. Meanwhile, lower pressure forces fewer borderline small particulate through the media.
Remember the lil backyard rockets that took a few ounces of water and you pumped w air? This is rocket science 101. V basic schtuff. Want more flow? Don't restrict whatcha got.
TWO filters 1/2" ports cross sectional flow area is under 0.4 sq in... Less than ONE 3/4" filter at 0.44 sq in. (AND I'm ignoring restriction from greater laminar flow reduction due to more surface area the oil rubs on enroute w tiny 1/2" dia hoses.)
I have a common 5/8" water service. A 1/2" hose would reduce my flow. Conventional wisdom says, a 5/8" hose maximizes flow. Almost true. 3/4" is a tad better, despite the 5/8" service connector being the main gating factor. Go big.

That's it, I'm parting out the 98 , -

Anyway , like how the factory set up comes off the top of the frame rail vs what I'm seeing after market. Horizontal set up. What I like about it is that it doesn't dip down as low into the fender-well. I haven't seen a horizontal aftermarket kit yet....not sure they exist. Regardless, that wouldn't stop me from running one.
Kit with multiple thread adapters, -

Well, looks like Bill already posted.
Forgot about this thread..different site and it was 15 years ago. Galaxy did a FL1A conversion with one of these trucks, remote set up -

That's a big filter, I didn't catch that the first time...Excellent find white. Bills going to saturated his phone in drool snot when he sees that.

The only reason I marked it as 3 stars verses 5, is that the website indicated that it would fit my 02Ram2500. It did not. Upon installation, it was discovered that 02Ram2500 has an oil filter thread of 1”-16. This item is 3/4”-16. Otherwise it would be installed
ONE AND A SIXTEENTH INCH.
That's in a 250/2500. But this should be a loud hint toward what is desirable when push and shove, meet. That is flow and that is almost anything above a 2000-2500 cruise. IOW, pedal 3/4 down. I run eco but that still happens merging onto the freeway. When you stir it up up is when you want/need that extra full filter flow... IMO.
