@Coldweather86, thanks for your reply, it got me looking into this further. The WIX is rated at 21 micron nominal. I'm not an expert but I think "nominal" means it will capture 50% of the particles that are 21 Micron in size. Less efficient for small particles, more efficient for larger particles.
Looking at the Mahindra filter it says on the can "13 MICRON FILTER". That's probably a nominal rating - I cannot locate specs for the Mahindra filter on the web.
Also, if the Mahindra filter is a 13 micron filter, the flow rate through the filter material would be less and that might explain why it is taller than the 21 micron filters that are generally available.
I'm thinking that maybe I'll wait for the OEM Mahindra filter to be available. Oil change is not urgent for me right now.
I have a couple of other small diesels (Yanmar) in a boat and a tractor and I've learned that they like clean oil.
Thats great information, good stuff to learn. Thanks BillB

For what its worth I changed my oil over the weekend using the WIX 51626 from O'Reily's. It threads fine but as many have noted it is a shorter filter.

Just to keep the confirming data coming, my dealer's source for the WIX 51626 filter was Diesel Freak. I'm changing out my break-in oil tomorrow or Friday before weekend rides; I will use the WIX 51626.

I see Sherwood Tractor has the Mahindra filters back in stock. Price has doubled since last availability. At $13 per I'll probably just use Wix from here on out.

Yeah I stand corrected.

Speaking of Sherwood; does anyone have a current discount code? I tried save10 and tractor5 but neither will work for me.

Also as stated earlier wix 51324 work as well and they are a bit longer , have a bit higher bypass valve setting @ 16 psi ....The wix 51626 BP is @ 8-11 psi ... With synth oil better & more filtration with the 51324 ....microns ratings are the same for both filters @ 21 ...remember there are a bunch of different ways they figure that micron rating.. mahandra claims 13 micron on theirs,but no one knows how they came to that number .I went with wix 51324 ....

Had a few other numbers I’ve been exploring.

Anyone ran a Wix 51182 yet? It comes in at roughly a half an inch longer with pretty much the same diameter as the OEM. Same gasket diameter specs as 51626. Seems like it may be a good candidate. Bypass valve setting is a much higher 24 PSI I will note.

I have a Bosch 3401 sitting on my counter that goes on. I had it screwed on loosely to see if it would go before putting an OEM I had on hand back in it’s place (figured it’d be bad luck to put a shorter filter on for the first change?). Essentially it’s the similar sized and spec alternative to wix 51626. I’ve ran the Bosch filters on my pickups forever....so that’s why I thought I’d see what they had to offer.

Of the few other options I’ve found, most seem to be old stock of discontinued p/n’s. I’ve got family that works for a Massey Ferguson dealer and a few friends with Case IH as well. I’m going to see if there’s anything promising from there. Won’t help everyone, but I’m sure a few farm/ranch guys in here might appreciate those options as well. Someone should check around with John Deere as well. I’ve seen their filters all over various vehicles and odd ball equipment.

That's why I change it every year if I don't hit the 25k. Oil still breaks down over time. I'm very pleased with amsoil though.
It will last you will just need to swap out the oil filter once during the year

Anyone have any updates for the rest of us? What else might cross reference?

One is a 15k filter the other is 25k. The 64 is a tad bigger. All filter 99% and have bypass valves built in. Nanofiber technology. They filter at 20 microns

I've been using this Amsoil filter on my chevy for years and it may not be as wide but it is longer. The overall filtration and leading technology is what I aim for. The bypass valve is the 8-11%. Fits perfectly the gasket is in the same exact place as the wix.
