John Deere Plastic Bushing - M146073

The design by John Deere is week, but what can you say about the part. It is the OEM part and fits as expected. Service was good and the part works. John Deere could certainly improve the design though. Using a plastic bushing on the most exercised and used part of the mower is a mistake. Mine was shot before 90 hours and being well taken care of. I bought 4 so I have them on hand. They are cheep. I cleaned, adjusted, and lubricated everything well, so it may last longer this time....

Great OEM replacement, not difficult to replace, one tip for anyone replacing, use a deepwell socket to remove and replace the bushings once you get the carrier off. Choose a socket same size as bushing and a hammer to gently push the old one out and new one in.
