1995 MTD: Lubricate blade / deck spindle?

[Fish]

You guys are assuming that his spindle looks more like this, but it isn't, if he gave the correct info.

Or this one.............................................................

I have one at home I will post a pic when I get home tonight.

Order the spindles on eBay from RUSSOPOWER they came with zerks and better bearings then oem

Yeah, post that pic.

Fish calm down. Relax don't have a melt down.

I know what his spindles look like and it is very easy to change the bearings.

The pic he needs is to show him where the springs go.

I will also show you the set I have that came with grease fittings.


Sometimes you act like a 4 year old when they don't get their own way.

Just because there are things you do not know how to do does not mean it can not be done.

If we all could only do things you know how to do none of us would ever get anything fixed.

 

[Fish]

Very easy??? Springs???

 

[Fish]

Yeah, I need to see this....

 

[Fish]

Here, I took one apart. So where do you drill/insert the zerk? When you remove the inner seals of the new bearings, do you
ooze a lotta sealant around the perimeter of the 1/8 inch steel parts and the flange??? One can get a new aftermarket spindle delivered for @ 22$, you are suggesting what? They don't come apart as easy as the newer ones, but if you have enough free time on your hands, well. But I still need to see this "zerk" installation......

 

[Fish]

OOOOPs!

I almost forgot......



If you actually drill the hole for the zerk in the outer race of the new bearing, I applaud your determination!!!!!

This is the spindle he has, no zerks, just replace the whole thing.

Yep, that's the one. Nope, I don't see where I'd drill...the bearing sits right at the top, and it's sealed, best I can tell.
