Source for coach filters
#1

For those of you who do your own maintenance I have been using an online source for all my filters for over 5 years. I have purchased all the filters for the engine, trans, hydraulics & air dryer. The best thing is that if you order over $100 they deliver FedEx free to your door. Take an old receipt & compare what you paid with what they charge--in my case the savings was about 40% to 60%. The web site is www.filterbarn.com. I have no interest in the company other than being a satisfied customer. If you find a place that sells cheaper please let me know.

Hope this saves you some money...........

I used them for my last air filter......$120 shipped. Paid over $300 for the first one. Thank you Tom and Steve....I don't know of anyone who sells for less.

When I ordered my filters from the Filterbarn, and elsewhere, I ordered two each. My first full service was performed by a Detroit dealer, but I am sure he would not have had all of the necessary filters in stock, and there was not problem with me providing oils and filters.

Last month I ordered an air filter & muffler from filterspro.com. Freight on BOTH was +/ $35.
The Donaldson air filter was $87.52.

Fitlerbarn wanted $164.20 for a fleetguard, but freight was included.

I guess it varies by product ?

Gordon,
Many times the big diesel air filters are made by the same company--Ecolite. I get a Fram air filter for under $90 and it says right on it Ecolite, just like the one I saw Newell put in Tuga's coach. While I like Fleetguard filters, I'll op for a less expensive brand like Fram, Donaldson or LuberFiner to save a few bucks. I have always found these company's filters to be of similar quality. I like to save money on similar products so I'll check your web site source too.

I went over to the FilterPro web site. I did a price comparison on some filters that I commonly order. FilterPro beat Filterbarns price about 50% of the time, so you'll just have to weigh in the shipping to you from Tucson, AZ. Most of FilterPro's filters are either Baldwin or Donaldson, although they sell others.

Gordon..................thanks for a new site!
