GC2310 pivot pin

My tractor had looseness in front axle. Northwood Power Equipment, sent the service truck,[Lucien ,nice fellow] replaced the pin,in my dooryard. Front end tighter now. The pin passes thru a set of bushings,o-rings, because it is in the axle housing. Bushings are what controls the tightness of front end. I'm happy with my dealer. plowking

I'll recheck it tomorrow, but I think it is around 374 hours. The pin has two shoulders, that fit into the bushings, there are [two?] o-rings I believe on each end. The bushings look like the bushings used on s-cams on air brakes on trucks. There is no need for grease zerks, because the pin is lubricated by the oil in front axle as it passes thru. plowking
