    Anybody ever put a K&N filter on T-600 or any other truck? Mine didn't seem to fit very well so after several phone calls back and forth they want me to send it back to be checked. when I inquired about a replacement/refund the answer was yes one or the other, but no one can tell me which one or when. Not impressed so far.

    I have one on my truck I bought the whole canister and i like it. I work in a dusty enviroment and some times I change the filter every month in the summer so far I just wash it when the restriction gauge shows its dirty and it still shows less restriction when its clean.

    That is exactly why I bought mine but it didn't fit right. After literally a full day of e-mailing pics and videos of their filter on my truck they want me to send it back for their engineers to look at. I was not offered a canister,just a replacement filter. I figured as common as a T-600 is most of the R&D would have been done.What kind of truck do you have?

    I would get the whole canister if K&N is going to work with you. Its a shame that there replacement filter in your case doesn't fit.
