[AT] Tractor OEM filters

[Mike]

OK, so a few months back I bought a Mahindra 4035 to replace an aging 
Massey 255. So far I love it; it sips fuel, and best of all, I'm not 
working on it all the time. The OEM recommends changing the original oil 
at 50 hours, then every 200 after that. So I called the dealer I bought 
the tractor from to see if they had a filter in stock, they did, for the 
bargain price of $27!!!!!!!!!! I mean come on, it looks like a regular 
filter nothing special. I can't believe Mahindra designed their own 
filter when there are thousands of ones already in production. Evil 
Dave, have you had any similar issues with your new Kubota? Any thoughts 
on how to cross this filter? I've tried to cross the OEM number with 
Wix, Baldwin, Donaldson, NAPA, all with no success.

Thanks,
