Has any one found a aftermarket or automotive replacment for the Raptor oil filter, I,m tired of getting screwed by local dealers for $ 16.00 filter, it cost less for a oil change on my truck[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

Read this link Oil filters. If thats not enough information do a search on oil filters and there are plenty more topics about your question.

 

I got mine from Chapparal for 5.00 and its made by high flow. I purchased about 5 of them for that price. Go to their website Here

 

What's the moose do, hook up a dialysis's machine to the raptor?

I forget the number but the blue AC oil filter looks good on blue raptors.

AC2057 it works, and cost 3.25

 

The one The Moose got is scott performance oil filter is reusable over and over again. I got it after Moose mention on the forum. It work great. You only pay the price once and it will last a lifetime. it will pay itself after about 12 - 13 oil change. I think the price is about 120.00 to get it. The web site is http://scottsperformance.com/

 

Chet you crack me up!!! LMAO!!

I got the Scotts reuseable filter. It works just like a System 1 filter. You disassemble it & clean it.

Here's what comes with the kit
It has a magnet built in
Here it is assembled
Stock & Scotts side by side
Installed on Raptor


It's about 3/4" longer than the stock filter with the GYT-R billet cover, It's kinda pricey but when you're paying $16 for a Yamaha filter & you add a GYT-R billet cover for $30 its not that bad, It'll pay for itself.

Here's a link to The Scotts web site
It's part # S1

 

I run a Bosch 3300. It's black too.

 

garyc660R,

I am going to assume you visited an auto parts house to get that filter. How did you match it up, cross reference, thread length?

I have never seen Bosch at Walmart.

Same threads and a half-inch longer than stock. I pick mine up at Auto Zone for $5 and some change here in the deep woods.
