This axle suspension bush is the original component that mounts on the front axle to dampen movement between the axle and the tractor chassis. It acts as a pivot point in the suspension linkage, allowing controlled vertical travel while maintaining lateral alignment of the axle. A worn bush introduces play in the suspension, causing the machine to drift off course during field work or transport. The manufacturer machines this part to the same inner and outer diameters as the original assembly, so it seats directly into the axle bracket without requiring shimming or adapters. On installation, ensure the bore in the axle housing is clean and free of corrosion before pressing the bush into place.
