I purchased a AEM air filter for my 2020 ram 1500. On amazon and on the box I got says it fits this truck. I went to install today and it is at least an inch shorter than the oem one? Part number 28-20247. I got this air filter off another thread that had a link in it. Anyone else run into this problem? I reached out to the manufacturing company. See what they have to say.

Then someone sent back the wrong one because everything I see says that will fit.

Would have to agree that somehow the wrong filter was put into the box as website shows it will fit your truck!!

Just installed that filter tonight and mine was right on. Someone boxed up the wrong filter!

If you bought it through Amazon, then contact seller, or Amazon for a replacement
