    Here's the Wix Website I used to cross ref my filters. Can look up Wix filter specs, cross ref a large variety of original equipment numbers etc. That's where I was able to cross ref an original equipment Mitsubishi filter #.

    Nick, have you used the filters without any problems? are the filters a perfact match for oil and air filters? I read on here somewhere that the air filters did not seal of as well as the original? Just wondering i will need to change the filter in my 95 mitsubishi soon. Thanks

    Michael,
    I do not use the cross ref for air filters. Have not needed to change one yet. I've been told and have read several different places that there doesn't seem to be a major manufacturer filter stateside that crosses well. Sounds like they fit in the airbox but don't seal well. Guess I'll put these guys claiming they have stock parts to the test when I need one or I'll modify a air filter housing from some other vehicle that will fit.
    Sorry, not much help on that one.

    Forgot, oil filters working fine.

    Haven't seen an air filter yet that crosses correctly. Some have tried and are very close but it just takes a little open crack around the filter to slowly destroy an engine.

    Use the oil filter # I posted. Wix 51365

    The trucks that I've had so far have taken about 3.5 quarts. I use 5w30 Castrol. Just my personal preference. No oil related engine oil failures yet, so why change. Some guys swear by synthetic, for severe applications I would tend to agree, especially in the severe cold here on some WI winter days if your vehicle sits outside all the time. For the most part I have had good luck with 5w30. Just my two cents worth

    Nick, found a cross reference number for the air filter in my truck Part# MD620584 on the K&N web site. K&N part# 33-2740 supposed to be for a Mitsubishi Pajero mini 660. The measurements for the filter looks close but i have to take mine out this weekend and measure it,will let you know if it is the same

    Good find Mike. Let us know if it measures out. I have used the K&N product in some of my engines and if you are careful with it when washing and re-oiling it works fine.
