are made of very tough, long wearing and slippery
polytetrafluoroethylene
(PTFE), and not ordinary nylon or plastic. Reduces steering effort about
85% and eliminates metal to metal friction, which can result in hard steering
and wear to axle and steering knuckles (even when knuckles are lubricated
once a year). Use automotive grease when installing. Go here for more
information:
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE): Complete Guide.

  Steering Knuckle/Front Axle Spacers (Steel Sleeve Bushings).
Replace worn spacers for dilapidated front tires and for easier steering.
Each spacer listed below fits various front axles in Cub Cadet garden tractor
models 86, 108, 109, 128, 129, 149, 169, 482, 580, 582, 680, 682, 782, 782D,

1604, 1606, 1650, 1710, 1711, 1712, 1806, 1810, 1811 and 1812. IMPORTANT:
The steering knuckles are supposed to "clamp" against these spacers with
the bolts/nuts, and the spacers are supposed to rotate/swivel in the axle
with the steering knuckles. Lubricate spacers through
Zerk grease fittings with an
automotive grease gun once a year for easier steering and
preventive maintenance. Because grease cost a lot less
than any mechanical replacement part(s)! When ordering, please specify
if you have a 3" or 4" tall axle.

  Steering
Knuckle/Front Axle Bronze Bushings. Replace worn bushings for dilapidated
front tires and for easier steering. Fits Cub Cadet garden tractor models
982, 984, 986, 1572, 1772, 1782, 1872, 1882, 1912, 1914, 2072, 2082, 2084,
2086, 2182 and 2284. Dimensions: 1" I.D. x 1.125" O.D. x 1" Length. Use these
to replace existing OEM worn bushings or repair worn (oblong) axle spindle
holes when no bushings are originally installed (when the spindles make metal
to metal contact with the cast iron axle). If no bushings were originally
installed in the axle, then spindle holes must be professionally
precision-aligned bored (machined) to accept bushings. Other sizes of bushings
are available. IMPORTANT: If no Zerk grease
fittings are installed in the axle to lubricate the spindle shafts for
easier steering and longevity of the bushings, it's recommended to install
these, too. Lubricate bushings through Zerk grease
fittings with an
automotive grease gun once a year for easier steering and
preventive maintenance. Because grease cost a lot less
than any mechanical replacement part(s)! High quality aftermarket. Replaces
discontinued Cub Cadet part #'s 741-3005, 941-3005. $18.00/set of
4 bushings, plus shipping & handling. |
  Do-It-Yourself Weld-In Drop Vertical
Spindle Shafts. Make the front of your Cub Cadet competition
garden pulling tractor as low as it will go for better weight distribution
and more traction when pulling down the track! Lowers front end approximately
2-3/8" on wide and spread frame Cub Cadet models 86, 108, 109, 128, 129,
149, 169, 582, 582 Special, 680, 682, 782, 800, 882, 1000, 1050, 1100, 1200,
1204, 1210, 1211, 1250, 1282, 1450, 1512, 1535 or 1650. Can also be used
to construct custom-made front axles, such as for a mini-rod pulling tractor.
Standard length of installed [Cub Cadet] spindle shafts is 3-1/8" for wheels
with a 3" width center hub, but these are available in any other length to
accommodate the width of the center hub in your front wheels. To install,
cut off original spindle shafts flush with steering knuckles, and depending
on diameter of shafts, drill a 3/4" or 1" hole in knuckles approximately
2-3/8" higher/upward from original shaft location. For front tires to set
perpendicular (exact 90° angle) with the ground, replacement shafts
will need to be positioned perpendicular with each knuckle, then securely
weld shaft to backside of knuckle for non-interference with spacing of
wheel/rim. A proven, ingenious and innovative concept by Brian Miller.
Please accept no advertised copycat products of this kind. (But I do appreciate
them acknowledging my ingenuity and intelligence.)

 Zerk
Grease Fittings. A grease fitting should be installed in [one piece]
wheel hubs or outer tubing with a rotating shaft so the [unshielded]
bearings/bushings or shaft will last longer when lubricated once a year with
an
automotive grease gun. Do not use a grease fitting on split
rim wheels. Remember - the moving part will likely wear more than the stationary
part. To install a grease fitting, drill a 13/64" hole, and use a 1/4-28
UNF TAPER hand tap to cut new threads for installation of the fitting.
Click or tap here to
learn how to professionally drill for and cut new threads. FYI - If a
grease fitting needs to be used in a thin-wall steel tubing (that's too thin
to cut deep enough threads into so the threads on the grease fitting will
not interfere with the inner shaft) to lubricate a moving inner shaft, weld
a
jam nut with 1/4-28 UNF threads on the tubing, then drill
a 3/16" hole through the nut/tubing, and install the grease fitting (with
short threads) in the nut. Remember - grease fittings provide
preventive maintenance when they're used regularly. Because
grease cost less than any major repair of equipment.

Aircraft Quality
Protective Rubber Seals/Shields
for Heim joints listed above. These are a cup-shaped neoprene rubber seal
bonded to an aircraft quality flat washer. When installed, rubber edge fits
snug against Heim joint body to prevent dust, dirt, debris and moisture from
entering the spherical ball, which will cause it to wear. Apply clean motor
oil on ball before installing seals for easier steering and to extend life
of Heim joint. Seals/shields for 1/4" Heim joint not available.
Steel Jam Nuts. These are about
half the thickness/width of ordinary nuts. Use these to secure tie rod end
joints or Heim joints to tie rod link or drag link to prevent loosening of
linkage and maintain proper toe-end alignment or length of linkage.

Flanged Oil-Impregnated Thin-Wall
Bronze Bushing for Upper Steering Shaft. Replace worn OEM thin-wall plastic
bushing for easier steering and less wear to lower bearings in steering box.
Fits upper steering column tube/shaft with a bushing retainer (metal
adapter/reducer) originally installed in IH Cub Cadet "Original" garden tractor
and Cub Cadet garden tractor models 70, 71, 100, 102, 122 and 123, and various
other early makes and models of garden tractors. OEM bushing and retainer
can be replaced with flanged bushing and bearing listed below. Oil impregnated
means the hardened metal is porous to absorb oil and grease so it will last
longer. Also, the oil acts as a cushion between the bushing and shaft, adding
resistance to wear. Dimensions: 3/4" I.D. x 1.003" O.D. x 3/4" height
x 1-1/4" O.D. flange. No longer available from Cub Cadet. Replaces Cub Cadet

without bushing retainer (see above). NOTE: Top of steering column must
be swaged (crimped inward to reduce diameter) with large pliers so bushing
will fit snug inside tube. Oil impregnated means the hardened metal
is porous to absorb oil and grease so it will last longer. Also, the oil
acts as a cushion between the bushing and shaft, adding resistance to wear.
Dimensions: 3/4" I.D. x 1-3/8" O.D. x 9/16" width x 1-1/2" O.D. flange.
