I have about 6,000 miles on my 6 month old Bronco and while yes, I do take it off-road quite a bit in very dusty and dirty condition I always take the air filter out afterward and use an air hose to blast most of the dirt and dust out..

After my previous off-road outing, I realized it was already at its end of life. Photos don't really do it justice, but it's a goner!

I found a 2 pack on Amazon for $26. The dealer wants like $50 each for a stock air filter. These Amazon ones actually look and feel exactly like the official Ford filters so I wonder if they are made at the same plant.

Anyways, if you need to replace your air filter, check these out. $26 for 2 of em'

Yeah, I really ought to make good on this deal. Between Moab and the State Forest trail, I’m sure mine is toast. And it’s my second one! Thanks for sharing the deal. 👍🏻

That's funny, I just ordered these too and put one in this morning.
I started looking for a Motorcraft brand, but the one that pulled up with a blurry-ass picture, just didn't look right, and too much $$$.

The same company makes a cabin filter as well. A 2 pack of those is $20, which is also a great deal.

My old one:

Absolutely essential, especially for offroading or areas with bad air! I like the cleanable K&N but for about $60 theyre not nearly as cheap. I have 3. 1 for daily driving and 2 that I keep for off road rotation. I know how much you wheel and I'm impressed it lasted that long. After my first day of wheeling on dry dusty dirt I saw that stock unit and took it out.

Good find. Going to get these! I've been hesitant to look at mine after seeing how bad the air filters get. We've been able to breath in the cabin but definitely a good idea.

I checked my Amazon history and it seems I ordered these last year. I'll add my recommendation to the list. I couldn't tell the difference other than the OEM filter having a Ford part number on it.

Order placed. I know I’m supposed to get it replaced at my 20,000 mile service, but at my mileage accrual, I cannot afford to wait. Nice having a spare out of the gate, too! Thanks for the heads up, Kris. 😎
