My vehicle isn't listed on any kit, is there anyone who sells the parts by dimensions?

I need a filter base with a 26x1.5 mm filter mount and a 4" filter base, 2" dia gasket. 

thx

Might help if we knew what part for what vehicle.


Or did I miss something?

rofl, it shouldn't matter since no one makes a kit but it's a 1986 Ford Ranger with the 2.3L DIESEL engine (which is a Mitsubishi 4d55t).

i am trying to get it by dimensions if anyone makes it that way.

oil filter is nearly inaccessible.  i figured out i can get to it by removing the passenger wheel and splash shield, which isn't as much work as you think, but it's still a pain.  but since oil changes are only every 10k miles, it isn't so bad.

The front undercarriage on my TDI Jetta has to be taken off to get to the drain plug.

Huge pain in the ass.

That is why I pay 60$ to get it changed  :-\

it's not the front undercarriage, it is simply a plastic engine shield/noise shield.  held on by 8 torx screws. 

i took mine off, i like the sound of the diesel lifters going.  the inside surface looks like a sound studio wall.
