This front axle bushing fits into the steering knuckle or axle beam of the host tractor, providing a replaceable wear surface for the axle pivot or kingpin. It supports the vertical load and allows the wheel assembly to rotate smoothly during steering. As the bushing wears, clearance increases, leading to steering play, uneven tire wear, and potential damage to the mating pin or housing. This replacement part is manufactured to match the original bore and shaft clearances, so no reaming or shimming is required during installation. When installing, ensure the bore is clean and free of burrs, and lubricate the bushing bore before assembly.
