This front axle bushing is the structural interface between the axle housing and the pivot pin on the host tractor. It provides a replaceable wear surface that maintains the correct clearance in the steering knuckle or axle pivot joint. As the bushing wears, the clearance increases, leading to steering wander and accelerated wear on the pin and housing bore. This original AGCO component is machined to the same internal and external diameters as the original assembly, so the pin-to-bushing fit is maintained without the need for shimming or reaming. On installation, ensure the bore is clean and free of burrs; lubricate the bushing bore and the pin before assembly.
