After market hydaulic filter 4035 PST

[DutchUncle]

Hi all, I am looking for an aftermarket hydraulic filter for my Mahindra 4035. After my first motor oil change I cut the OEM filter apart, and found it was a Fram clone. Glued on cardboard end caps, that I paid $27 for. Fortunately, I was able to cross the oil filter to a Baldwin B202. I have had zero success finding an aftermarket hydraulic filter, I find it hard to believe that Mahindra would use a propriety transmission filter. Any help would be appreciated; Mahindras part number is 007202702C1 Thank-you

Looks like the Fram and Wix are about the same price as Mahindra. They have you over a barrel. Those large filters are always higher priced. The larger filter is required to maintain flow so don't stick a shorty on there.

I'm not worried about the price, I'm worried about the quality after seeing the lack of quality based on what I saw when I cut the OEM engine oil apart.

I cut a Kubota and Baldwin open and the Kubota oil filter was better..
