WHC-125 4 #1 Posted April 15, 2009 Are their any difference in the center spindles and side spindles on a 42 inch side discharge deck for a C series? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHC-125 4 #6 Posted April 15, 2009 I just bought the deck yesterday and its in great overall shape but needs a on spindle replaced. I have a deck that I got with my 312-8 that I will take the center spindle out of because it doesnt have a left or right one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelHorse_of_course 99 #7 Posted April 15, 2009 For what its worth... Often they won't all look the same because one or more have been replaced previously. :omg: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Duff 206 #14 Posted April 15, 2009 Chris, when I rebuilt the 37SD deck on my 312-8 last summer I was able to simply change the spindle bearings. As I recall they weren't terribly expensive. Is this an option for you or are the spindle housings shot? Duff :omg: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHC-125 4 #15 Posted April 15, 2009 The spindle housings should useable? How much do the bearings go for? :omg: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don1977 604 #16 Posted April 16, 2009 I have up graded my spindles several times the last ones I got uses 6203-2RS it's the same bearing that is used in an old Chev. alternator (1978 I think, not sure). The spindles I have the drive pulleys are not keyed the bearings have a spacer between them and are held in place by the 5/8" nut and lock washer on top. The spindles have have grease fittings on the top of the shaft. The shaft dia. for the bearing ID is .6665. The last bearing I got a friend got them for me from Oregon Outdoor Equipment Parts the part no. 45-400. He got a discount trough the company where he works. I payed $4 or $5 each for the last Chev. alternator bearings, that was several years ago. I had to go the several parts houses to find enough to fix my deck. The bearing listed above has grease seals both side, I remove the inside seals when I install them. I had a trouble with the pressed steel pulleys slipping because of wear in tall grass. I went back to the original cast iron pulleys that had the flat sides, bored them out and sleeved them down to 5/8" faced them off to the steel pulley thickness so they would work with the new shafts.

gwgdog66 23 #17 Posted April 16, 2009 I have up graded my spindles several times I have also. The last go round, I used the spindles an blades for the current 42" SD deck mdl #78345. Dealer could have gotten the older parts, but it was cheaper and quicker to go with the current stock items. Less head aches as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JDubya 0 #18 Posted April 20, 2009 I'm looking at the same issue.. 15-42sc02 Mower deck My issue is, the parts drawing looks like many parts not just a spindle.. I this the case or is it just a spindle? Thanks, Jim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don1977 604 #19 Posted April 21, 2009 They used to sell an assembly that included pulley and blade. The last ones I bought were $67.00 a piece that was 8 or 9 years ago. I have just replaced the bearing since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
