BX Mower Deck Universal Joint Replacement Parts

[usmcskeeter]

I was taking off my 60" mower deck from my BX200 the other day and I noticed that my u-joint was a little more stiff than I would like. I gave it a shot of grease and it still sounded rough, so I figured I'd replace it as I am now doing loader work for a while. I looked up the part and the Kubota part (76539-31180) is running $80+ I was very surprised and figure there has to be an aftermarket option. I haven't been able to locate any information through cross-reference searches, so maybe there isn't anything.

Has anyone found anything more affordable?

You might could try to measure the u-joint and order one that way. Try this link or there's plenty more on the web.

Ujoints are just like any other standard hardware components, once you learn How to measure them, you will be able to locate replacement parts.

If you have a driveline repair shop near you, take it to them and they should be able to match it.
