Mowing Mower wheel

[outridder]

I lost the pin that holds the front wheel to the mower deck on the PT 422. I'm missing the pin and one spacer. I'm sure I can get the pin at tractor supply but wondering if I can get the spacer locally instead of having one shipped from Tazwell? I noticed the problem when I lifted the deck and the wheel fall out. Surprise... surprise!

Thanks
Dan

I would think you could use a flat washer to replace the spacer. How thick is, or should i say, was the spacer?

The spacer is 1/2" high and the outside diameter is 1 5/8" with an inside diameter of 1 3/8". Not a problem ordering from PT...just wanting to save some down time. It's been a rainy green Summer here in MD.

Thanks

Then you could just do whatever needs to be done to make it work for you now and still order the correct part. When the part comes in swap out your quick fix.

I lost one of mine, too, but I just took one off of my brush hog and used it on the mower. The one's on the snow plow are the same, too.

I'll make the call tomorrow and shouldn't take long to get here and they certainly should have that part since it's used on several attachment. I knew I should have gotten that snow plow...LOL

Thanks

Yep. Buy 8 spacers for $450.00 and get a free power angle snow blade! What a deal!!! /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Wow it must have a nice cushion on it. Maybe even heated.

Down the road again. Yea, that math doesn't compute....got two spacers for 5$ and that was a cheap smile on one's face.
