MF50 power steering filter

[fatoldfool2]

Question about power steering filter on MF50. Can anyone tell me the correct filter? It is a John Barnes Corp power steering pump. 182493M92. The Barnes number is #GCMH34042. The outside diameter of the filter is about 2 1/16 in. Thanks!

Well, no help from you folks and no help from my back country dealer.... What do I do now?

I found your pump number 182493M92. It shows up in the Massey Harris 50 parts book (used on tractor prior to serial number 534469), not in the Massey Ferguson 50 book. The part number for the pump assembly for a MF50 is 188896M1. Do you have a Massey Ferguson 50 or a Massey Harris 50? The book says the element part number in the reservoir of that pump is part # 1008553M1. That crosses to a WIX 51653, but the dimensions are different that you posted. Are there any numbers on the old filter? Is there room for the Wix filter it crosses to? Maybe someone but the wrong one in previously, so dimensions won't match. Maybe the pump has been swapped out in the past as the MH part number matches the one in the book but the Barnes number doesn't. A good parts store should be able to match up a power steering filter if that Wix number doesn't work out. The ball is in your court now.
