I hope I'm not getting into a war about OEM vs China parts and is my tractor worth saving the money to buy Chinese, but we will see where this goes.
The only question I have is has anyone used the Chinese knockoffs of the Kubota and are they any good?
Big difference in price, $90 for Kubota vs $23 for China.
Is my tractor engine worth the extra 70 bucks? Yes.
Only question is if anyone has experience with aftermarket, do they fit and work as well?

Edit. Looked at the wrong sub model.
Some have found Donaldson brand it good but not sure about the price on those.

Vegas has better odds!

The Kubota-branded air filters are Donaldson-Fleetguard filters. Many of them still have the Donaldson name on them alongside Kubota, and some come in a Kubota box and only have Donaldson or Fleetguard printed on them.
