Default Oil Filter Adapter O-Ring

Planning on replacing the Oil Filter Adapter O-Rings on my 2000 XJ. Locally I can only find the dealership 4720363 kit for $12 - rip off or a Felpro Kit ES72962. Anyone use the Felpro kit? Why are there 4 O-rings in this kit. I thought the adapter only used 3?

I just bought mine at a dealership that way I knew they were the correct size.


The other kit is a generic one for several things.

Yeah just get some from the dealership. Not really a rip off for peace of mind knowing they are correct. I just did this last month with mopar ones from the dealership.

Get your replacement kit from a dealer. I'm not sure if it was Felpro but there are "kits" with an assortment of O-Rings and they're crap
