Oil bath air filter retrofit

thebigyellowtruck · May 14, 2014

I'm ordering a new clutch for my WD and while looking on the parts page it says that this air filter fits the WD. Is this a retrofit for the filter canister instead of the oil bath? Or is the website just wrong. I posted the link to the Napa version of the filter in question.

I don't want to post a link to a competing site. But its on reliableaftermarketparts dot com. part# RAPAF4400
Air Filter for WD

There is nothing better than an oil bath filter, it catches everything. I would not change.

Wrong in all respects. Send me an e-mail if you want to learn about a couple of alternatives to the wet oil bath.

Guess it might work, but it doesn't look right at all. They list it fitting a bunch of stuff that I doubt had the same oil bath as the WD did originally. I like the oil bath. Simple to work with, no problems. If you want something different, I don't care one way or another, but I'm not sure that thing is gonna fit.

Thanks for the replies. I was just curious about it. I've never heard of a filter replacement for the oil bath and I wanted to know. Thanks.
