WARNING: FRAM filter CH9549 changed

So I stopped at Wally's today to pick up a filter for my next oil change. I discovered that Fram has changed their box for the filter that fits our trucks. To my surprise I discovered that the filter seems to have been changed. The lower felt ring is changed and all the patent info is now gone. I can't say as this is a material change that will cause the filter to not function properly. It's info...make your own decision.

I didn't look in the bag inside the box. These just popped up in my area so it seems like old news. I'll get the MC ones for $1 more....no issues for me. I just hope MC doesn't change.

What you have posted is the Fram ExtraGuard filter. Supposedly (I haven't verified it) Fram still sells the Racor one in their "regular" series filter- it is in an ALL orange box (doesn't have the yellow stripe). Personally I am sticking with MC as well - will buy them from RiffRaff.
