Other than maybe contacting the site, I wouldn’t be able to tell you. I didn’t get mine from the site but was at the Cummins dealer in Calgary and saw it being sold there. The parts guy looked it up and ordered me the plug. This is my second one. The first one, I swapped out the fumoto valve on my Tacoma for this one. Absolutely love them.
Did you ever figure this out ?
I have this for mine, and it works, though you could use another angle; I just wanted to avoid it hanging down since I step on rocks.

Oh, I hear you
I saw the ?, thanks. Does that mean that you have a diesel ? What year ?I have this for mine, and it works, though you could use another angle; I just wanted to avoid it hanging down since I step on rocks.
I'm sorry. I thought you figured it out afterward. It's on the picture itself (2022 Wrangler Diesel), under my profile on the side, and this is in the Diesel section of the forum

It does, somewhat, I'm still confused, but that's not your fault.I'm sorry. I thought you figured it out afterward. It's on the picture itself (2022 Wrangler Diesel), under my profile on the side, and this is in the Diesel section of the forum
So, yes, I installed it on a 2022 Jeep Gladiator EcoDiesel (February build). I can check my OEM drain plug against my pitch tool if you want to confirm the 1.5 pitch. But between M14 and M18 alone, there's a 4mm diameter difference, so there's no way I could have slotted that inside and started threading the bolt in.
Hope this helps.
Sorry I couldn't tell from the front angle, I'm not that good... I totally missed what sub forum it was in... maybe give me a pass, I'm a JT owner ?I'm sorry. I thought you figured it out afterward.

Nah if you're sure your sure.
Your dealer has mixed up the length of the bolt and its diameter. M4, M10, and M18 are all different gauges, like a #10 and a #4 SAE screw. In other words, it is a measure of the diameter of the thread. A full screw specification would have 3 numbers, diameter (gauge), pitch, and length. If you measured a 1" long screw, then it just tells that it's a 1" long screw, nothing about diameter or thread pitch.
I agree that it is confusing and does not tell you which is what. I believe that they meant to say is
| Screw | Date |
| M18 x 1.0 x ?? | Up to 05/22/2020 |
| M14x1.50x21.50 | Starting 05/23/2020 |
Thank you.Ok, I think I understand where the confusion comes from:

e.g., M18x1.5x20 would be a M18 screw with a 1.5mm pitch that is 20mm long.
The pitch in metric screws is the distance between threads, while in SAE, it's how many threads are in one inch (much more confusing to me).
Play a bit on McMaster if you like; this can be helpful, in my opinion:
P.S: For that part on the Mopar website:

I'm thinking you are correct, the more I inquire, seems M14-1.5 is what the newer models are using.
Yes the length, of the bolt. But I wouldn’t worry about it too much if it’s long enough that all the threads on the oil pan are engaged and not too long that it collide with something in it. Now, for the Fumoto it’s a bit more important since one would leave it in place, if it’s too long it won’t drain all of the oil.
