OFI068 ventilation filter for Ram trucks with 6.7L Cummins diesel engines from 2007.5-2020

This ventilation filter provides a direct replacement component for Ram 2500, 3500, and 5500 series trucks powered by 6.7-litre Cummins diesel engines. Designed specifically for vehicles manufactured between mid-2007 and 2020, it serves the crankcase ventilation system which helps manage internal engine pressure and filter contaminants from recirculated crankcase gases. The black-coloured filter carries the model designation OFI068 for precise identification and compatibility checking.

Vehicle Compatibility and Application

This ventilation filter is engineered exclusively for specific Ram truck applications with particular powertrain specifications.

Ram Truck Models Covered

The filter fits Ram 2500, 3500, and 5500 series trucks. These heavy-duty pickups and chassis cab configurations share common engine bay layouts and ventilation system designs. The compatibility spans across different cab styles, bed lengths, and drive configurations within these model series.

Engine Specifications

This component is designed specifically for trucks equipped with the 6.7-litre Cummins turbo-diesel engine. This inline-six cylinder powerplant has been used extensively in Ram heavy-duty trucks throughout the compatibility period. The ventilation system requirements are specific to this engine's design and operating characteristics.

Production Year Range

The filter applies to vehicles manufactured from 2007.5 through 2020 model years. The 2007.5 designation typically indicates mid-year production changes or model updates. This 13.5-year coverage period encompasses multiple generations of Ram heavy-duty truck design while maintaining consistent ventilation system requirements.

Product Specifications and Construction

The ventilation filter features specific physical characteristics and identification details that distinguish it from other components.

Model Identification

Each filter carries the OFI068 model designation, which serves as the primary identifier for ordering and compatibility verification. This alphanumeric code corresponds specifically to this ventilation filter application for the specified Ram trucks with 6.7L Cummins engines.

Physical Characteristics

The filter is constructed with black-coloured materials, which may include filter media, housing components, and sealing elements. The gross packaging weight is 917 grams, which includes the filter itself along with any protective packaging materials included for shipping and handling.

Crankcase Ventilation Function

This component serves the vehicle's positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system, which routes blow-by gases from the crankcase back through the intake system. The filter element helps separate oil mist and particulate matter from these recirculated gases while maintaining proper crankcase pressure management.

Installation and Maintenance Considerations

Proper installation and maintenance practices help ensure the ventilation filter performs its intended function effectively.

Compatibility Verification

Before installation, verify your vehicle matches the specified criteria: Ram 2500, 3500, or 5500 model with 6.7L Cummins diesel engine manufactured between 2007.5 and 2020. Checking the vehicle identification number (VIN) or consulting manufacturer documentation can confirm proper application.

Replacement Interval

The ventilation filter should be replaced according to the vehicle manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule or when inspection indicates reduced function. Regular replacement helps maintain proper crankcase ventilation and engine breathing efficiency.

System Performance

A properly functioning ventilation filter helps manage crankcase pressure, reduce oil consumption through the ventilation system, and maintain engine efficiency. Regular inspection and replacement as needed supports overall engine health and emissions system operation.
