Hi,
I just bought a Arctic Cat 375i and was wondering if a Fram oil filter can replace the stock filter on the machine? If so , which Fram filter number is the one to use?
Thanks , FlatTire
ps any 375i owners? share your comments...

 

Flattire,
Congratulations on the new Cat, the 375 isn't an i model it's an ACT. How do you like yours so far?

Oil filter info:
FRAM 6018
Purolator 16818
WIX 51359
STP SMO-18
Thanks to Newcatman for posting this info a while back[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img].

 

I just got mine back from the dealer. They said there was a fastener of some sort in the tranny that had backed off and become loose, causing some noise. I'm getting ready to hit the trails today. Man did I miss that machine. My Polaris is nice, but it doesn't have the power or suspension of that cat! It may be softly sprung and have some roll, but nothing, and I mean nothing, keeps the wheels on the ground on gnarly terrain like that Cat. I won't trade the smoothe ride or articulation for less body roll. Just my O.

 

Hi TG1,
Thanks for the info on the filters. I can get Fram filters for about $6.00 insted of the almost $12.00 for a Arctic Cat filter. I think Fram will do just as good a job as the A-Cat filters. Today was the first ride on the machine and I think I'm gonna like this a bit to much.... I'm still in the break-in mode... You have one? 375?? Is there a place on the net that has good prices on accessories for Arctic Cat ? Well, thanks again for the info !

I'd check Rocky Mtn, maybe Shade Tree everything one mine came from the dealer (except for the GPS mount). Blackmagic is working on Cat ATV performance parts.

 

TG1, What brand of gps do you have and where can I get the gps mounts at? FlatTire

 

got no idea where the above came from!!!

 

I got a Garmin eTrex and the mount is for Bikes but it works well on the front rack.

 

The fram filter is a PH6018 and the STP which is a better filter is an SMO18 Both can be picked up at your local Auto Zone for about $4.50-5.50.
