Dad and I have used 5 and 6 foot KK finish mowers for years. He was told that they spindles were throw aways. THe other day he asked what I gave for my last spindle replacement. I told him I never bought but one. He gave 80 bucks for the last one that burnt out. He cicnt belives me so the other day at work his 6 footer started leving a streak of lower cut grass. He wentto the dealer then and got one and it was 80 bucks. It was a slow day so I pulled the old one down took off a few snap rings and and took outthe old China bearings. I ran down to NAPA ang got two 9 dollar china bearings the same size and replaced them. 18 dollars and 20 minute later I had a new spindle.
