There isn’t a single universal oil filter part number for all 2014 Ram 6.7 Cummins trucks. The exact number depends on the filter type and production date; verify the correct part via the vehicle’s VIN against Mopar/Ram’s official catalogs or a trusted parts retailer.
Why the part number can vary
Diesel engines like the 6.7 Cummins used in Ram trucks have several filter variants over production years and across different suppliers. Even when two trucks share the same engine size, the manufacturer may update filters or switch to aftermarket equivalents that require different part numbers. The result is that the same engine model can use more than one valid part number over time.
How to identify the right filter for your truck
Use the following steps to determine the exact part number for your 2014 Ram 6.7 Cummins:
- Check the oil filter currently installed or its packaging for any part numbers, brand markings, or barcodes.
- Locate your vehicle’s VIN and pull the official parts catalog entry for your exact truck (year, model, trim, and engine) from Mopar/Ram or a reputable retailer.
- Compare the cataloged filter information to your vehicle’s details to confirm a match.
- If you don’t have direct access to the catalog, contact a Ram dealer parts desk and provide the VIN; they can confirm the Mopar part number.
- If you prefer aftermarket options, use cross-reference guides to ensure the substitute matches the original’s thread size, length, and filtration capacity.
Following these steps helps ensure you order the correct filter for your specific truck and avoids compatibility issues.
Where to look up the part number and cross-reference options
These sources are reliable for identifying the appropriate oil filter part number and for cross-referencing with aftermarket brands:
- Mopar official parts portal or your local Ram dealership’s parts counter.
- Reputable aftermarket suppliers (Wix, Bosch, Fleetguard, Donaldson, etc.) that offer VIN- or model-based lookups and cross-reference tools.
- Online retailers and marketplaces that provide vehicle-specific lookup by year/model/engine and show compatible filters.
- Local auto parts stores where staff can verify compatibility using the VIN and engine specification.
Using these sources ensures you can identify the exact Mopar number and confidently select a compatible aftermarket substitute if you choose.
