Donaldson or Baldwin equivalent hydro filter

jacain · Aug 29, 2016

Does anyone know the part number for.a Donaldson or Baldwin equivalent? Ford dealer is somewhat out of the way, but there are big truck service centers near my work. This would be the hydraulic filter that's under the left floor board on a 83 3910. Also, has anyone used a Baldwin or Donaldson filter in place of the CNH filter? What is your opinion of it? Thanks in advance for any insight.

The filter I have is over 6 inches long. I looked the CNH part number up (84518613) and it says it's compatible with my tractor (obviously). When I search by tractor model number on the nh site or Wix site it gives me a filter much shorter than that. Just thinking about getting the longer Wix equivalent from Napa since it's on the way home. What do you guys think?

you know Ford doesn't make filters, Wix, Donaldson or Baldwin are all great filters, Ford had two different lenghts as the filter was used under the step, and also on the engine mounted pump. One was longer that the other but the shorter could be used in both locations

Actually the longer can also be used in both locations so long as the tractor does NOT have an horizontal exhaust system. Fleetguard has a cross to the shorter one for sure and probably the longer one, too.

I've got the horizontal exhaust. Rick do you prefer the Fleetgaurd over the Wix?
