Mower Deck Spindle Bearing Easy Fix ZTR Hustler, Cub Cadet, John Deere & others

[@timothymilam732]

Good to see your making repair videos once more been a good while since you have done any. Not that the trains aren't relaxing as long as one's not sitting waiting for one to pass by that is. But you have the natural talent of making things easy for many to understand what why and how things should be done. Most folks are afraid to take such task on for fear of either ruining what they have, or being charged excessive amount of parts, and labor as by other shops. That tends to make folks scared enough not to even try to do things for for themselves. Then there's some folks that using old fashioned hand operated can opener is beyond their ability to do anything mechanical. The fact that you take the time to make these, supply the vendors, parts list, and the knowledge needed knowing that it's going to cost you money if even a few local customers do the repairs themselves. I commend you for your efforts, teaching skills, your experience and knowledge of your business. Most of all the understanding that some folks can't afford to pay someone to do such things for them, some of us actually enjoy doing such things ourselves, but giving someone the information to be able to do such things themselves has to improve that person's life far more than they themselves even know. Thank you for being you, and if there were more like yourself maybe we wouldn't be in the mess that it is. Sorry I am do long winded, I'm trying to work on this, as it seems to be a issue with some folks. Only at my age, I don't believe I'll put much effort into changing some minor character flaw at this stage of my life. LOL, and besides, maybe it's themselves that needs to make some changes. Have a great day Sir

Thank you…excellent video on replacing spindle bearings. Especially appreciated comments about reusing same spindle & replacing bearings as after market spindles inferior quality.

Good video I like the jack stand that made from a model T rear?

[@IFIXIT4U]

Thank you. My favorite jack stand. Lol.

[@honestotter7632]

Will these wearings fit the spindle of a Hustler raptor SD 60" spindle?

[@IFIXIT4U]

Check the number on the side of your bearings and order parts per the number. Thank you.

[@WeSRT4]

My Raptor SD has been a total POS. I am on year 6 and so far the paint is flaking off of the deck, deck hangers have been replaced, hydro brackets broke and had to be replaced, spindles all needed replacement. Heavy duty LOOKING but junk in reality. I am going to purchase a Bad Boy Rogue!

[@IFIXIT4U]

Not much different between them. Scag would be a step up. Good luck.

[@WeSRT4]

@@IFIXIT4U I need a suspension on my next mower. The Rogue is a huge step up from a Raptor SD!

[@dillonbright2193]
