Just a heads up.
I was looking for these parts awhile back, and was not able to get them from the ford, or International dealer.

You need to buy the entire top portion of the oil filter housing assembly.

I checked with my buddy who has a few 6.0L's sittin in his shop, and wanted to compare them to see if he had any that were in better condition then mine.

After looking at a couple he had, I am keeping mine.

Both of the units he had were destroyed. The rubber seals were cut right through providing no seal whatsoever. (You can see where mine is starting to cut into the rubber seal in the picture)

So the next time you do an oil change...might wanna take the time to pull the filter tower off, and have a look as to what shape yours is in....might save you ALOT of money.

Just a heads up...

Nope. You have to buy the whole damn filter housing for $438.00
But since mine is just starting to wear, I finally found the 1/8" push nuts, so I am going to file the old nuts off, flip them around, and put the new push nuts on.
The rubber seals are still soft, so they should be ok.
