I would recommend this replacement extruder as you have a lot easier access to the filament than the original CR6-SE extruder. It is also a lot easier to put back together if you need to change the gear

I would recommend this filament feeder as it is easy access to the filament and all the parts should they need replacing. This is basically the same thing as the red one but you might prefer a silver/purple one instead.
