I just purchased a new air filter (ECO-SM 0998442009) made by Farr from a Freightliner parts house in Pacific, Washington for $111.96 plus tax. I know this is in Washington but you might try Freightliner or Kenworth shops in your area. I also tried an International parts house but they wanted $235. So shop around. The one I purchased is 13" Dia. 15" long and has 7" ports. Below is a website for sizing the filter. Good luck

Several air filter manufacturers make the filter. Changing it out is the pain as we have to drop ours strainght down and undo two fuel lines to get it in or out.

Try filters pro.com. I found the best deal for my Monterey there.

Thanks for all the information on the air filter for my 3126 Cat Engine. I was able to purchase one from Freightliner parts department in Carson, California for $103.00 plus tax. The new part number is  Farr - 99842-9. It has to be shipped down from Reno. I will get it in about a week.

Thanks to everyone for the help.
