Oil filter adapter question
Slight oil leak. Filter is always covered in oil and so is everything back. I think it is the oil filter adapter from some searching I have done. I have never replaced one of these before. How do you do it? Any special tools or advice? I cant really tell how to get it off without cleaning up the area real good so Im just trying to gather some info before I get in there. Thanks guys.

I just replaced mine not that long ago. You will need a t60 torx. And the bolt we be extremely tight. You'll have to go to dealer or online to get the oring kit because it uses 3 oring a and auto part stores only can get the large one. The mopar part number is 4720363. 2 smaller ones go on shaft and the large one goes on adapter itself.
