On my new to me 7580 I found what I think is a lubrafiner oil filter on the front of the cab behind the engine firewall plate.  I know a combine with one on it and it started leaking and we bypassed it>  Is that a viable option with this one?  I am certain the last owners never changed the element in it as there is lots of dirt on the clamp and fresh spin on oil filters on the engine

much nicer to eliminate and bolt a bypass spin on to the frame next to the engine if you want to run a bypass filter.   that's what our 7580 has.   yes you can bypass it too.

If you go to a heavy duty truck parts place, you could get new gaskets and elements for it. I do agree that changing to a spin-on bypass would be less of a problem. Those Lubri-Finer 750 filters will leak badly if you try to reuse the gasket too many times, or over tighten them because you're too cheap to use a new gasket.
If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY
