This axle bushing is the original component for the front axle of the host tractor. It provides a replaceable wear surface between the axle shaft and the housing, maintaining proper alignment and load distribution during steering and travel. A worn bushing introduces clearance that leads to axle wobble, uneven tire wear, and accelerated wear on the shaft journal. As an original part from the tractor manufacturer, its bore and wall thickness match the housing's interference fit and the shaft's running clearance, so no shimming or reaming is required during replacement. On installation, ensure the bore is clean and lubricate the inner surface before pressing the bushing into place.
