Note the 20x1.5mm thread size.

Thanks!
 
Is it for the Subaru in your signature, or the Nissan? On the Subaru, you should be able to fit a filter that's both wider and taller. In that case, I'd use a 51334 if you're set on using a WIX, which has a lot of filter media. If it can only be taller, there's the 51356, but it doesn't use much filter media for a filter of its size.

See this post for a list of filters with M20x1.5 threads with media area measurements. I would avoid both the WIX 51365 and the 51356.
 
Note that while the 51365 and 51356 appear easily interchangeable, the base plates are different in that one has a more concave recess than the other. This may well affect if the filter fully engages the threads and/or if the gasket fully compresses before the plate bottoms out.

No, but good catch. This is for my 2021 Kubota RTV-XG850 with the 2cyl gas engine. The Kubota part number is: HH1J0-32430

 
I found two viable replacements using the Wix physical search feature. The original Wix filter (eq to the Kubota P/N) is Wix 51365 and is about $15 at O'Reilly's. The two replacements are $26 and $42 at O'Reillys. No thanks.

Interestingly enough, my XG850 specifies the Wix 51365, while my 96 Pathfinder specifies the Wix 57365; both have 20x1.5mm threads and are 2.58" and 3.402" in length, respectively; diameters are similar. Si I can use the 57365 on both vehicles.

Thanks for the help!
