Yes it works. Wix 51182 for peugot forklifts and certain tractors. Almost twice the size of our regular filters and it spins right on. The bypass pressure is higher as well.

Went to oreilly, gave em the part# and they had it the next day. My past oil change was an stp because its all I had that day. That filter SUCKED! I put the wix on today (just a filter change, not full oil change) and wow. My oil pressure never used to go above 40 when I revved, now when I hit 3k or so my pressure is at 55. Can't believe it made that kinda difference.
