Make sure you use a QUALITY filter guys. Dont sacrifice an engine rebuild because you saved $3 on an oil filter. Same goes for other parts like Thermostats etc. Get genuine Cummins parts.

There is good oil change info for newbies here:
Oil & Filter Change on Ram/Cummins
Theres nothing magical about changing oil in a Cummins just more oil and a bigger filter than on a car....everything else is the same basically.

That's why I listed Fleetguard as the bestDo as I say, not as I do, my truck's way out of warranty

No buy your parts from Cummins or a Cummins dealer. Much cheaper than a Dodge Dealership.
Because you are out of warranty - using the best parts is that much more important. Using an oil filter that could come apart when you are off warranty isnt really the smartest thing in my opinion.

Good set up IMHO is a baldwin BF1212 (or cross reference) (20 micron water separator, designed to be on the suction side of a pump)-> raptor/fuel pump-> 2 micron (or whatever secondary filter)-> injection pump.
By the by where are you in Mass?
