I've done a bit of trawling through filter manufacturer's catalogues to try and find an equivalent to the SA-made CA5608 air filter for the Donaldson cyclone filter housing, which does not cross-ref in the UK.
The best (in fact the only) match I can find is:
Crossland (are they still in business?) # 8063
Isuzu Trooper/Vauxhall Monterey 3.1 turbodiesel 93-99
Dimensions 155 dia x 88.5 dia x 190.5 long (really more like 200 with the foam seal)
Getting one in from local factors tomorrow to double check it's correct.

Well it would fit if Blueprint could be bothered to make them to the dimensions listed...The ID is too small on the end cap - 75mm not 89 - so it would mean cutting the internal neck off the filter housing lid to make it fit.

I don't want to spoil it, so ordered a Pipercross PX 1322 which has a much larger ID and can be washed. We'll see if that fits when it arrives.

After all the rigmarole, not to mention the expense, of getting the manifold parts I needed, the garage now tells me I need a new air filter. I know this is an old thread but I am hoping, praying even, that there is a suitable one still available that won`t cost me my remaining arm and leg. Fingers crossed for a positive response.

Got a brand spankers proper one here chap. NOT a GSF one from another model that might fit (no offence intended as they are non existent over here) but one posted from SA!

Look through my for sales old posts as had it up a while back. Can't remember how much I paid or how much I advertised it for! Know I paid the bank twenty fucking quid for the privilege of transferring the money abroad for me though. Robbing twats! Lol
