Steel Spindles Housing P/N 8139

Recommended Posts

I saw thread on here that mentioned that the older decks had steel spindle housings.   Could the steel housings be rebuilt using parts from the newer spindles with aluminum housings?  I would love to replace the aluminum spindles on a deck I hope to one day refurbish with steel ones.  Has anyone tried to make them?  Bill

Unfortunately the spindles from the newer decks are not a direct replacement item for the older steel housings . The shafts they use have a different blade type ( Double "D").

I was wondering if the spindle housings have the same dimensions, bolt pattern etc?  I would like to use the newer spindle shafts, spacers etc to build spindles I can install in a rebuilt deck to eliminate the rot prone aluminum housings.
