When your disc harrow or field cultivator won’t roll straight anymore and you’re getting uneven tillage patterns, it’s often that worn spindle that’s causing the wobble. This replacement spindle is the backbone of your wheel hub assembly—it keeps everything rotating smooth and true so your implement does the job right, field after field.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-machined 1-3/4 inch diameter shaft that fits snug in your 280551/W888 hub
- Full 12-1/2 inch length provides proper bearing spacing for stable wheel support
- Made in the USA construction that’s built to handle the constant rotation and side loads of tillage work
- Direct replacement for part number 280720—no modifications or adapters needed
Built for Real Farm Work
This spindle is designed for the W888 series hubs you’ll find on disc harrows, field cultivators, and other tillage implements. Whether you’re working a Glencoe field cultivator, breaking up corn stalks with your disc, or preparing a clean seedbed for spring planting, this is the same quality spindle that keeps transport wheels rolling smooth across all kinds of field conditions.
Made to Last
Agricultural spindles take a beating from constant flexing, dirt, and the side loads that come with turning at headlands. This one’s machined to precise tolerances and heat-treated to handle the stresses of heavy tillage work. The smooth finish resists corrosion and lets bearings seat properly for long service life.
Good to Know
You’ll need to order the spindle nut and washer separately—they don’t come with this spindle. When you’re installing, clean out the old grease and inspect your bearings while you’ve got everything apart. A little anti-seize on the threads makes future maintenance easier. If you’re doing both sides, it’s worth checking the other spindle at the same time.
