@@billstractorcorner I have a Jubilee with a loader and I am getting ready to tear into it. My front right tire has bad positive camber (top of tire sticking out). I am guessing its a bent spindle? Maybe bushings. The other side is perfect.
@JD-uy5js i would guess exactly as you have - either bushings are badly worn or something is bent. Should be obvious once you get it apart! Good luck on the repair!
Thanks! I got a new to me 51 8N that I’m pretty sure has these thrust bearings blown out. Mine has a different loader, but is super hard to steer when looking to go left. I appreciate it!
@impactreliability good luck, hope it makes a difference! These tractors are definitely not well suited to heavy loaders, but they're better than doing it by hand! A counterweight on the 3 point hitch to take some weight off the front tires also helps!
it was incredibly hard to steer, but steered fine with no binding if I jacked the front off the ground. Soon as I took the spindle out the balls fell all over the place, so it was confirmed. These tractors were never built to have the weight of a loader on the front end, so if you have one, likely your bearings are toast.

total well channel, bye. 🌟
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
This is why you grease your spindles...Thanks for the video brother!
You're definitely not wrong! :) Also having a loader on these little tractors is pretty hard on the thrust bearings, but it is what it is!

How did you know the spindle bearing was bad?
