I thought it would be good idea to replace rear axle oil and filter. I'm quite sure it never has been. However, now I cannot locate a correct filter.
Anyone here, have any experience with this issue. using Mfg part number comes up no longer available. Is an automobile automatic transmission filter ok to use(if it fits) ???
This mower is 1993, model 1692042- 16GTH. Anyone know what mfg made the trans unit ?
Thank you.

I have a K215-A hydrostat on a simplicity mower, It has a 194856-86551 trans filter. Does anyone still have this filter? or is there a replacement?

According to the service manual the transaxle is a Tuff Torq K215A but Tuff Torq's Ordertree's IPL doesn't knowledge it.

The 1707873SM is a Tuff Torq 19485686551 (194856-86551) filter. The problem both are listed as NLA.
