M35a2 air filter element: commercial part #?

[NGC]

I need an air filter for M35 a2
6x6
does anyone one have a commercial part number I can cross reference as local parts store can't reference number off old filter?

The air filter listed in the spreadsheet is for a M35A3 it won't fit a M35A2.

Does anyone have part number for m35 A2
numbers on old filter are 10912373
and 19207

I don't think you will find a cross to a commercial parts house . You will need to order it from one of the MV vendors.

NAPA FIL2837, Baldwin PA1620, and Fleetguard AF826 will fit. They don't have the same CFM rating as the military filter. NSN: 2940008047898 PN: 10912373 is the correct one.

Is the cfm of the mil spec filter more or less than its commercial counterpart?

 

[jasonjc]

The mil is 410cfm the napa/wix 42837 is 265 CFM. The Wix is used in a Case loader with 7.4l NA diesel.

I put the AF 826 on my truck. No issues.

 

[texas30cal]

Thanks, I think I'll try the Napa or the wix

One thing you need to consider. The military filter can be washed and reused again and again. Commercial filters cannot.

 

[texas30cal]

I didn't know that, and never even considered checking the tm concerning what I thought was a plain old paper air filter.

As already mentioned the smaller napa filter will work ( had one in my first deuce ) but heres a pic of the size difference between the two ( napa on the left ).

I didn't know the military filter could be washed and reused. I may have to get one of those.

If the NAPA filter only flows 70ish% of the mil filter in CFM. That's a pretty appreciable difference in air flow, based on the 410 vs 265 CFM numbers given being brand new. At 265 CFM as the NAPA filter does its job that number shrinks. Seems to me that the NAPA filter even mildly dirty could cause other issues. The obvious being performance but also expense on more frequent filter changes. Not to mention oil leaks ect. Or is my thought process way out in left field?

Not to hijack the thread just something Ive been wondering about for a wile. Seems as good a place as any to ask.

No your correct. Filters are sized to meet the engines needs even when dirty. A marginal filter when new will not meet the engines needs when dirty. Then the engine will start to suck harder causing all kinds of problems in the crankcase and elsewhere.

Thank you for the conformation. Think I'll stick with the mil filter. Glade I found this post as I was leaning towards to NAPA filter not knowing the CFM numbers.

Will these parts (engine specific) apply to my multi fuel m51a2?

The fuel and oil filters , belts and thermostat should your best bet is to cross the military part numbers between the 2 .

Duece and 5-ton air filters are very different. No swap there.

If I had a duece I'd be tempted to modify it by putting a 5-ton filter on the fender. They last a loooong time, and are washable.
