When king pin bearings wear out, you'll notice loose steering, front-end shimmy, and that unsettling play that makes your tractor unsafe to operate. This precision-machined bearing restores the tight pivot connection your front axle needs between the chassis and steering knuckle, eliminating dangerous play and returning steering control to factory specs.
Why Quality Bearings Matter
Precise 1.10 inch inner diameter and 2.05 inch outer diameter for exact fit without slop
Heat-treated construction withstands constant pivoting loads and impact forces
Smooth bearing surfaces reduce friction and extend service life under demanding conditions
Proper dimensions ensure reliable performance in king pin and stub axle pivot assemblies
Professional installation requires thorough cleaning of housing and pin surfaces before assembly. Use a bearing installer or proper press to seat the bearing squarely without damage. Re-lubricate after installation and verify smooth rotation without binding for optimal steering performance.
