Abstract
A filter assembly employs a bracket and a base which mounts a disposable filter element cartridge. The bracket has a bracket mounting portion for mounting the bracket to a vehicle and a base mounting portion for mounting the base. The bracket mounting portion may be offset from the base mounting portion to provide mounting flexibility. The base mounting portion has a plurality of outwardly projecting catches that engage and support a corresponding number of hangers on the base. A threaded stud mounted on the bracket is received between the hangers. A nut in threaded engagement with the stud is torqued into engagement with the base, securing the base to the bracket.
