Didn't leave much room for the filter, but was easily able to get the smaller stock filter on. Might have been able to squeeze the larger Puralator L14610 filter in there, but it would have nearly touched the frame rail.

I use the PL14612 which is shorter than the 10. Allows you to have more grasp around it to grip/turn. Recently swapped one on a 2012 and it was still close to tight. I'm cautious about recommending a thermostatic plate, even though its the way to go... Worried about clearance.
