I guess the ones below are for low profile applications?!

Kind of shows how they are constructed. The fl820 and the Fram next to it are both for your truck.

i see a slight difference in how much they crushed maybe 1/8th of in inch...
Anything i am missing here?

Yeah I remember havin to crush em when I worked at jiffy lube.

The bottoms of the Ford filters didn't crush near as much as the fram filters.

Some filters have extensive valving in them.

I quit using the PH2 and switched to the FL-820 after the stinking Frams, brand new out of the box, were leaking oil onto my garage floor after a couple hundred miles of use. That wasn't the only reason, but it was the final nail in the coffin.

*Look at the construction of the screw on ends of the PH2 and FL-820 and ask yourself "which of these two will flow better than the other". Also, note where each of them is made.

The 6.0L PSD motor uses a cartridge filter which is just the filter media and no metal canister.

This helps reduce costs, waste and saves more (metal in this case) from being in our landfills.

... did I miss something? How does this pertain to this thread at all? LOL

I will keep that in mind to help influence my decision if I am ever in the market for a 6.0 LOL.

Easy....

The filters shown are old and used and the photos show how they crush down to a "smaller package".

I was just making an observation that even after being crushed, it is amazing how much still goes into the land fills... and that the 6.0L and 6.4L diesels use a cartridge filter. Less material, less waste. The 7.3L was the last diesel to use a "spin-on" oil filter.

That's all nothing more than that.

Great... more 6.0L owners are always welcome here at FTF.
