This bushing fits into the front axle assembly of the host tractor. It provides a bearing surface between the axle pivot and the chassis, allowing the axle to oscillate as the tractor moves over uneven ground. Wear in this bushing produces a loose or clunking feel in the front end, which can lead to accelerated wear on the pivot pin and axle housing. This component is manufactured to the original geometry so that it seats correctly in the bore and maintains the specified clearance with the pivot pin. On installation, ensure the bore is clean and free of burrs, and lubricate the bushing before inserting the pin.
