total well channel, bye. 🌟
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
Thanks! I got a new to me 51 8N that I’m pretty sure has these thrust bearings blown out. Mine has a different loader, but is super hard to steer when looking to go left.
I appreciate it!
@impactreliability good luck, hope it makes a difference! These tractors are definitely not well suited to heavy loaders, but they're better than doing it by hand! A counterweight on the 3 point hitch to take some weight off the front tires also helps!
How did you know the spindle bearing was bad?
it was incredibly hard to steer, but steered fine with no binding if I jacked the front off the ground. Soon as I took the spindle out the balls fell all over the place, so it was confirmed. These tractors were never built to have the weight of a loader on the front end, so if you have one, likely your bearings are toast.
