Look at the prices. Your welcome. Good replacements! My brother works for MTD and buys these products for the lawn mowers I bet some of you have in your garage at this moment.

[elwood]

[JonS]

hells bells, i don't know which ones i need for my arms.

 

[DeadLastRacing]

I'm ordering 4 for my arms. (I badly need them) I'll give a review.

 

[87warrior917]

coolness! great prices! Hope they last a good while

 

[beastlywarrior228]

lol we use them all the time for school

 

[JonS]

are these just the outer shell so to speak? doesn't look like they come with the piece that actually attaches to the spindles. i have regular auto ball joints in my arms.

HAH, really? He's still in college. Has a paid internship there in the engineering dept. He's on the floor a lot though working on the machine and what have you. His name is Kent.

 

[87warrior917]

Hell yeah. Like what plant is he at? Im at the willard plant.

 

[DeadLastRacing]

oh, he works in streetsburro (?) or around there.

 

[DeadLastRacing]

I just ordered 4 of these.

Mine were way beyond shot. Front end should be nice and tight this year. This are almost the exact same as the ones I had on it (2k lbs less wight rating) bit the added zerk will hopefull keep the debris out and the noise down, make them nice and smooth too!

$40.20 for all 4!

Thats cool, I'm sure the grease fitting will really help like you were saying.

Got'em. Thing is the tard that had the arms before me, over locktite'd them and now all the pins are junk. Had to order new pins. Fuggin $78!! I got one apart but it was a chore.

 

[87warrior917]

WOW!! he must of used the whole bottle of lock tite haha. the grease zerk is noice. That should make them last longer

 

[DeadLastRacing]

WOW!! he must of used the whole bottle of lock tite haha.

Something like that. There all stuck but I wanted to see what it would take to get one free, A welded heim, garred up pin and beyond stripped cap bolt later, it broke free. The zerk will also keep the front end a lil smother and quieter too I'm hopein.
