I have a LS XR3135HC that I just did my 50 hr service. I called the Dealer to order the Oil filter and he said just go buy a Napa Gold 1516. I finally got around to doing the work and found out pretty quickly that the 1516 does not fit. It is 1" longer than the LS filter and won't clear the loader mount. Removing the loader won't help because the bolt on mount is in the way of the filter.
I called the Dealer and his shop tech said that is what they always use, he didn't understand why it did not fit. I then went to Napa and they couldn't cross over to the LS filter number nor find anything that was short enough. I left there and headed to O'Reillys to get a WIX. Just before I arrived the shop tech from the Dealer called me and he stated that he went to try the 1516 on a tractor they had, you are right, it doesn't fit. He tried several filters and came up with a Napa Gold 1348. I purchased a WIX 51348, it is slightly shorter than the LS but fits. Which what the service tech said.
Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.
