This authentic OEM replacement ball joint assembly is a part of the front suspension of a lawn tractor or riding mower. Suspensions are complex systems that include joints, bushings, and bearings that must all work together to turn and maintain contact with the ground. This ball joint assembly helps to connect all of these components. It works similarly to a human hip in that it has a joint and a ball that allows for pivot motions. The most common reason for a ball joint assembly to go bad is if it loses lubrication or becomes gritty. In order to work smoothly, these joints must stay well oiled or else they will grind and break. If the ball assembly breaks, use a wrench to disengage the wheel and change out the part. This is a fairly straightforward repair and should not take more than a few minutes. This replacement assembly is a high-quality part for Cub Cadet, Huskee, MTD, Yard Machines, Murray, Troy-Bilt, Bolens, Ryobi, and Yard Man machines. This part is sourced from the original parts manufacturer and ships individually.
When interlock switches are working properly, they will keep the engine from starting if there is no foot is not on the brake or if the parking brake is not set. When the switch breaks, it will not allow current to reach the starter even when the brake is on, which means the engine will not start. If the solenoid is not clicking when the ignition key on the tractor or mower is turned, the interlock switch is likely to blame. This is a genuine OEM replacement interlock switch that can help get a lawn tractor up and running again. Is is compatible with riding tractors and mowers from many different brands, including Craftsman, Bolens, Yard Machines, Yard-Man, MTD, and Troy-Built.
The nut-hex flange 5/8-18 features a hex nut with a wide flanged portion at one end. This flange will act as an integrated washer that does not spin. Since the flange acts as a washer, it ensures that the nut can fasten to the material's surface evenly. If any of these nuts are removed from a machine to do other work, it is recommended to replace them with a new nut-hex flange. Check the nuts that are currently on the machine at least once a year. Make sure they are properly tightened and that they are in good condition. Replace them as needed. This OEM part will work for many types of equipment, including lawnmowers, edgers, snowblowers, and lawn tractors. The part will work with many brands, including Ryobi, Poulan, Bolens, Yard-Man, MTD, Yard Machines, and Troy-Bilt.
