Maddus 0 #1 Posted April 28 G'day Red Square Brainstrust, I'm based in Australia and attempting to restore a 417-A tractor with the 18" side discharge cutter deck. I'm having great difficultly finding genuine or aftermarket spindles to suit the cutter deck. 8Ten and other suppliers do not freight to Australia. I'm considering using off brand spindles that may be more accessible in Australia e.g. John Deere, Cub Cadet etc. and retrofitting them. Does anyone have any experience with this can could they suggest options? I'm pretty handy with fitting and welding, so minor modifications would be no issues.

WHX?? 51,687 #2 Posted April 29 @76c12091520h may have them. See if he ships that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,839 #3 Posted April 29 (edited) Presuming a typo, you must mean a 48" side disch deck. I have good used replacement spindles for it. They have limited corrosion, but the bearings are true with no wobble or slop. Here is a SAMPLE pic of what I think you need. NOTE---The center shaft does NOT have a keyway slot.

Lane Ranger 11,388 #4 Posted April 29 (edited) Maddus: Check into this new aftermarket supplier. They have complete kits for replacement. You can contact them online for fitment. I would think if you replace all three spindles at one time with new ones they would work on your mower deck! https://8tenparts.com/products/8ten-810-csp2376n-3pack?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAobQK4GB7NtOrDDKr6gV37O-XUlJe&gclid=Cj0KCQjw8cHABhC-ARIsAJnY12zG1UUx700GcXYl9zjb78lWY1rZGUMiNfoOIZZ3H3xcbbJ5YbCf6loaAn2cEALw_wcB Edited April 29 by Lane Ranger 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
