 Teflon Thrust Washers for Steering Knuckles and Front
Axle. Installs where steering knuckles makes contact with underneath
of axle (load-bearing and friction area), and is centered by the steel
bushings/spacers (listed below). Provides easier steering with less effort,
especially with a snow plow or front end loader bucket. Each Teflon thrust
washer listed below fits various makes and models of garden tractors with
3/4", 7/8" or 1" diameter front vertical spindle shafts. These washers 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). Apply automotive grease when installing. Go here for more
information:
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE): Complete Guide.
|
  Steering Knuckle/Front Axle Spacers (Steel Sleeve Bushings).
Does not include bolts or castle nuts. 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, 784, 800, 882, 1000, 1050, 1100,
1200, 1204, 1210, 1211, 1250, 1450, 1512, 1604, 1606, 1650, 1710, 1711, 1712,
1806, 1810, 1811 and 1812. NOTE: The steering knuckles are supposed to
"clamp" against these spacers with the OEM bolts/nuts, and the bushings/spacers
are supposed to rotate/swivel in the axle housing with movement of the steering
knuckles. IMPORTANT: For
preventive maintenance and smoother steering, lubricate
these parts through Zerk grease fitting with
an
automotive grease gun once a year.

  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. For
preventive maintenance and smoother steering, lubricate
these parts Zerk grease fitting with an
automotive grease gun once a year. 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 garden tractor 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 do not accept advertised copycat products of this kind.
(But I do appreciate them acknowledging my ingenuity and intelligence.)

 Zerk
Grease Fittings. For preventive maintenance, if a grease fitting isn't
already installed, one should be installed in [one piece] wheel hubs or outer
tubing of 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 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.

Available Soon - Detailed Illustrated Plans on How to Construct a Professional Pull-Back Garden Tractor Pulling Sled and a Self-Propelled Garden Tractor/Small Wheel Mini Rod Pulling Sled (Weight Transfer Machines) - (Updated 7/16/24) [Top of Page]
FYI - I'm getting closer to
completing my sled plans. But being I have lots of work to do in my shop,
I work on designing my sled plans in my spare time. As soon as my plans with
an inventory list of parts to use and with illustrations are perfected, I'll
post the announcement in my websites. And as for prices of the pull-back
sled and self-propelled sled plans, I'm not sure yet. Make me an offer and
I'll consider it. And remember - Perfection takes time. If it's worth having,
it's worth waiting for. It'll be money well spent. - Brian Miller
If interested, please contact me below.
Quality-Built and Nice-Appearing Garden Tractor & Mini Rod Self-Propelled Tractor Pulling Sleds (Weight Transfer Machines) For Sale - (Updated 8/17/24) [Top of Page]
Sleds will be built as orders are placed. A minimum 50% deposit
is required for all sled purchases. Buyer/purchaser can test sled with their
pulling tractors or vehicles on our 200 ft. dirt track, and then can tow
it on the road (like a trailer) or haul it on a large, sturdy trailer. Sleds
are designed with style and made beautiful to admire, and painted metallic
or color of your choice. Also, sleds are designed to start easy, pull smoothly
and sure to stop with grouser bar. They will also have a safety release lever
up front so when the weight box tops out and trips it, it will automatically
disengage the clutch to prevent major damage to the drive mechanism for the
weight box. And it will have another safety release lever at the rear in
case the clutch (for the weight box) is engaged when backing up the sled.
The self-propelled sleds will have a varible speed mechanical drive system
with hydraulics to lower the two front steering wheels/tires, and the bigger
sled will use hydraulics to bring the weight box back to its starting position.
By the way - the self-propelled garden tractor pulling sled that I built
in 1995 (and sold in 2021) is such an excellent design, I realized later
that I made something very special when other people copied it. It's still
in use today; click or tap photo of it to the right for a larger view.
Small size, pull-back
(non-motorized) sled with open cabin, comfortable swivel seat and controls
within easy reach for operator. For use with 1,050 lb. garden pulling tractors
and up to 1,500 lb. small wheel (26-12.00x12 tires) mini rod pulling tractors.
Length of sled: 12 ft. Total weight of sled fully loaded with weights:
approximately 4,000 lb. $6,000.00 each.

Metal Graphite Bushing for Upper Steering Column Tube/Shaft. Replace worn
OEM plastic bushing for easier steering and less wear to lower bearings in
steering box. Fits IH Cub Cadet "Original" garden tractor and certain Cub
Cadet garden tractor models 72, 73, 86, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 124,

1000, 1100, 1200, 1250, 1450 and 1650, and various other later makes and
models of garden tractors without bushing retainer (see above). NOTE:
Top of steering column tube 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. (19mm) x 1-3/8" O.D. (35mm)
x 9/16" height x 1-1/2" O.D. flange. Replaces Cub Cadet 941-3023.

Aircraft Quality
Protective Rubber Seals/Shields
for Heim joints listed above. These are a cup-shape 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.
