Anyone have Oil Filters??

[Chopper911]

I know this has been beat to death... but it is time for an oil change on the Gen 1 and I would prefer to stick with the 5281090AB filter. Unfortunately, I am more likely to find a unicorn. Does anyone have an extra or two you want to part with.

If you couldn't get this one, what is everyone using? I have read the forum posts but still not sure what is the best option. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Sorry that I can't help with the filter you mentioned.

The MOPAR Oil Filter NOW recommended is Viper Specific for 1992 thru 2006 Vipers...05037836AB. (note "AB" and NOT "AA").

Never was impressed with the Mopar filters.

Never was impressed with the Mopar filters.

The Mopar one says 'Viper' on it, therefore it has to be superior by default

Would you recommend the MOBIL M1204A Extended Performance for gen 1?

Yep. I use the Wix 51085XP 20W-50 GP1 oil

Would the gen 2 use the same as a gen 1? If so, I have about 6 or so that were for my 1998 GTS which I sold for a gen 5.I would have to move some garage stuff to get the number off the box if needed.

Gen I, Gen II, and Gen III Vipers use the same size oil filter.

M1204A has roughly the same By-Pass Pressure Valve rating as the Viper Filter.

The ones I have are Mopar #05281090.
