DDBackhoe is this what you want?

Yep, ending up getting one from a different LS shop. Had to be special ordered from some warehouse because this dealer didnt know irt existed either. Very frustrating when you have to explain to the dealership people how to order their parts and then have to give them money too.

Bigger surprise, I emailed LS corporate (1/19 and follow-up 1/30) for some clarification on interchangeability and so far, 0 response. Damn glad this is not one of mine. I wanted to buy an LS MT357 Pc but couldnt get any responses to my inquiries then either (dealers and corporate), glad they changed my mind for me.

How much has everyone paid for a full filter change? What brands did you use?

2019/2020 MT240HE

These are off the Invoice for the spare filters I requested from my dealer at purchase. Only the OEM is what I can verify, I'll leave the cross referenced numbers posted from above.

Oil filter / OEM # 40409065
Fuel filter / OEM # 40271228

Hydraulic Filter / OEM # 40007638 / NAPA # 1715 / WIX # 51715
Hydro Transmission Filter / OEM # 40007563 / NAPA # 1551 / WIX # 51551

These are what is printed on my air filters,

Inner Air Filter / OEM # Donaldson P822769
Outer Air Filter / OEM # Donaldson P822768

Well, Local LS dealer closed up so now looking for alternatives again. I contacted a few LS dealers that I will be passing by or near next month, one still hasn't responded. The other 2, well! Some of these filters must be made out of gold now!

I think I'll try the WIX or NAPA alternates listed, a couple I haven't seen confirmed yet.

Here are the prices I've been quoted for LS filters,

Oil filter / OEM # 40409065 / Wix WL7426?? $21-35
Fuel filter / OEM # 40271228 / Wix WF8395?? $70-74

Hydraulic Filter / OEM # 40007638 / NAPA # 1715 / WIX # 51715 $55-58
Hydro Transmission Filter / OEM # 40007563 / NAPA # 1551 / WIX # 51551 $50-53

Inner Air Filter / OEM # Donaldson P822769 / 40049446 $36-38
Outer Air Filter / OEM # Donaldson P822768 / 40007576 $35-42

Funny thing is, Each dealer has some that are higher and some lower than the other dealer.

I ordered these Wix and Donaldson filters all through Amazon for much less than listed above.

Oil filter / OEM # 40409065 / Wix WL7426 $19.81
Fuel filter / OEM # 40271228 / Wix WF8395 $18.51

Hydraulic Filter / OEM # 40007638 / NAPA # 1715 / WIX 51715 $43.00
Hydro Transmission Filter / OEM # 40007563 / NAPA # 1551 / WIX # 51551 $11.17


Outer Air Filter / OEM # Donaldson P822768 / 40007576
Inner Air Filter / OEM # Donaldson P822769 / 40049446 $64.00 for the set

If the Oil and Fuel filter don't fit, I can return or I'm not out much money.

Please let us know if the Wix filters work for you. I have the same LS 1.9L and that WL7426 can be bought much cheaper.

Thanks for following up with this. Never know who it might help.

The Wix WL7426 also fits my tractor, but it is a bit longer than the stock LS. Not a problem for my tractor as it doesn't hit anything. YMMV. Rock Auto currently sells them for $7.55.

They are selling that fuel filter for $8.12

Figures, as soon as I place an order after lots of searching for the best deal, someone finds a better price! 🤪

I had to do a search again just to see and for some reason Rock Auto is pretty low on the page and doesn't show the price. I went there anyway and hopefully this is just the wrong picture as they show the wrong filter.

When you check on the WIX website it gives this reply.....
40409065​
This is a valid competitive part number and there is no replacement at this time.

You don't know for sure if that oil filter (WL7426) has the proper bypass pressure which could over time ruin your engine by letting unfiltered oil get around the element. I may be totally wrong about that though...

Also my fuel filter is 40416089. WIX also has no product offered. That is a paper element only. I reluctantly went to my dealer and he had the proper oil filter for $17 and the fuel filter for $40.
If you could cross reference the fuel filter by physical dimensions you could probably get one for $15.
That fuel filter is going for $47-$90 plus shipping every where online so for now I can handle the $40 price tag! Albeit reluctantly.
Believe me in no way do I feel that is my responsibility to subsidize the dealers business but if I see he is making an effort to be reasonable in his price offerings I will buy from him. (Plus I had no other options!) For purely selfish reasons I don't want to see him go belly up.
He had a fiberglass LS blue canopy that I have seen advertised for $550 plus the ridiculous shipping charges. He wanted $500 and it's 20 minutes from my property so I can pick it up. It seems he is trying to be competitive.

You missed this comment,

I had been getting LS filters from local dealer (RCO in Greenville) but they closed up as of a few weeks ago.
The Numbers I ordered were supplied by other users (here or on other platforms) that reported they were compatible. We shall see. As for the oil filter bypass pressure, I do not think they will be that different.
