AM125424 Oil Filter Replacement for John Deere LX 173 288 STX 38 46 GS 25 LT 133 LA 140 145 F 620 LTR 155 Replace AM119567 2Pcs

What It Is

This AM125424 oil filter replacement is a spin-on filter designed for small engines in John Deere lawn tractors and zero-turn mowers. It filters engine oil to remove contaminants, ensuring smooth operation and longevity. It’s a direct aftermarket alternative for OEM part AM119567 and fits a wide range of Deere models.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your engine’s oil filter thread size (typically 3/4-16) and gasket diameter (about 2.3 inches). This filter replaces OEM AM119567 and AM125424, and fits models like the LX173, LX288, STX38, STX46, GS25, LT133, LA140, LA145, F620, and LTR155. Check your mower’s model number under the seat or on the frame—deck size alone doesn’t guarantee fit. Cross-reference with your owner’s manual or an online fitment guide. It’s not universal; avoid using on non-John Deere engines without confirming specs.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Rated 4.7/5—users report it’s well-built with a rubber anti-drainback valve and high-flow filter media. Comparable to OEM in performance at a lower price.
• Installation: Easy DIY job—hand-tighten 3/4 turn after gasket contacts the housing. Don’t overtighten; use a filter wrench only for removal.
• Common Gotchas: Some users note the filter is slightly shorter than OEM (about 2.5 inches vs. 2.75), but this doesn’t affect function. Ensure old gasket is fully removed to prevent leaks. Check oil level after installation.
• 2-Pack Value: Two filters for $14.88—cost-effective for seasonal changes or multiple machines.

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible John Deere lawn tractor and want a reliable, budget-friendly oil filter that matches OEM specs, this is a solid choice. It’s ideal for DIY maintenance and frequent oil changes, but double-check fitment if your model is older or has a non-standard engine.
