MTD Spindle Ball Bearing

Because this bearing fits a wide range of equipment, you must cross-reference your mower's original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part number with the numbers listed in your owner's manual. Do not rely on visual appearance alone, as dimensions can vary slightly between models.

Yes, this pack contains six bearings, which is typically enough to perform a complete maintenance overhaul on your spindle assembly. Replacing all bearings at the same time is recommended to ensure even wear and consistent blade rotation.

Yes, this bearing is engineered to be compatible with several brands, including Troy-Bilt, Murray, and Craftsman. As long as your specific model calls for the OEM part number this bearing replaces, it will function as a direct, compatible substitute.

You likely need new bearings if you notice excessive vibration while mowing, a high-pitched squealing or grinding noise coming from the cutting deck, or if the mower blades feel loose or wobbly when the engine is off.

While you can often install these with standard shop tools, you will likely need a bearing press or a suitable driver to seat them properly without damaging the housing. Consult your mower's service manual for the specific removal and installation procedure required for your deck.
