I知 the guy who said the Wix WL7426. I searched for a long time and cross referenced the engines to another vehicle (in Korea). I first used the Wix 51516, but felt it was too small (less filtering material). I致e been happily using the WL7426 without issue on my XR4140HC. Just buy a few of them up front to save the hassle and extra shipping costs.

The WIX WL7426 did not fit my 2019 XR4150 HST. At first I thought I was just having trouble threading it on, or the one was damaged or something, so tried a second one, same result. The filter post, (or whatever you call it) looks to be a different diameter. Threaded the original back on no problem. If the WL7426 doesn't work, I guess that means the 51516 won't work as well? Anyone have a different filter number for a XR5150??

Thats weird. We have the exact same engine, with only a year difference. Mine is a 2018. The Wix WL7426 is a perfect match... well, almost. The Wix is a bit longer than the stock LS brand. Use calipers to measure the 'post' diameter and compare it to the filter. Also, look for damaged threads on both the post and the filter.

I figured it was just me being a little inept :duh:. The WL 7426 fit. It's overall diameter was about 1/4" more than the original and so it was up against the hydraulic line that runs just underneath it. Though it looked lined up it was obviously a hair off centered and therefore wasn't threading on to the post. Just had to force down the line a fraction of an inch and was able to thread it on. I guess I learned to not change the oil at dusk with no extra light, and trust your fellow LS owners!

Thanks!

Just wanted to mention that when I changed the hydraulic and hydrostatic filters on my 2019 XR4150 I tried the shop vac trick and it worked great! I just used a funnel that I could get the shop vac hose into and had a buddy put the funnel into the fill hole and the vac hose into the funnel and had him hold everything tight. i lost maybe a 1/2 a cup of oil in the whole process.

Does anyone know the headlight # on a XU6158? Want to replace them with led.

They are all pretty universal, just pop it out, go to Napa and pick you poison on led, they are pretty much all the same, get the cheap ones, don't fall for fancy packaging or hype. Only 4 companies in china makes them and they are all the same.

Just wanted to post this here and sanity check myself. I am at 50hrs on my XR4140-H and need to do the service:

Air - WIX 46489 and 46490
Oil - WIX WL7426
Fuel - WIX WF8395
Hydraulic - WIX 51551MP
HST - WIX 51715

(All info gleaned from this post - thank you all!)

This thread is almost unusable. So many posts and different models all in one makes it very difficult.

This should be a sticky by model/series so someone can locate their model and get the numbers they are looking for.

I'm trying to find the commercial replacement for my XR4145 filters ,
How do I go about finding the X-reference numbers?
What other models share the same filters?
I see alot of other models listed and some like numbers.
