I am perusing Amazon for genuine filters and ran across a full kit that uses WIX filters. Has anyone used WIX filters in their Kubota? They aren't cheap, but they are about half the cost of the Kubota brand. There are CHEAP kits, less than $100 that I wouldn't even drive the tractor over, but this one has WIX which is a known good filter. I did find 2 engine oil filters, with $5 shipping for $23, and they are Kubota filters, so thats seems like a good price since one filter is about $16 from the dealer. Oh just found a 3 pack for $12 each with free shipping. Genuine Kubota filters. Now if I can find the hydraulic filters for a decent price....

Amazon is know for fake/knockoff filters even “genuine” brands. If the price is too good to be true it’s probably fake.
How much are you using your machine to try and save $10-$15 dollars on filters?

Again how often are you changing the hydraulic filters to try and save a few dollars?

Wix are good filters... been using them for years.

Personally I would stay away from Amazon... you just can't trust it. too many knock offs.

I use Fleet filter online for just about any filter I need... for anything.

They are cheaper than the dealer and good quality.

just cross reference the kubota #'s

I buy engine oil and hydraulic oil filters from the local Kubota dealer for my tractors and generator and don't plan on using anything else. However, I buy oil filters for the Jeep and Fords from Amazon, Rock Auto, Zoro etc. I buy WIX for the Fords and Purolator for the Jeep but both are owned by MANN+HUMMEL. I always compare prices and am leary of too good to be true pricing. Mostly I'm comparing shipping costs and will often buy multiples in order to get "free" shipping.

Take a look at Messick's video of comparing Wix to OEM. Guarantee (even if Amazon isn't peddling fakes) you will not use Wix. Yeah they're not like using the Orange can of death but definitely not OEM quality. Personally I simply go to the local dealer and buy OEM everything
