I did the same mod with my 19"John Deere E120. Also, I replaced the wheel bushings with ball bearings. It makes a big difference and should help it last. (I'm at 100hrs). It runs and drives better than new.

Good idea on the wheel ball bearings!

[@GY6SCOOTERCHAT]

Got a link for the ball bearings ?

[@Rebel9668]

It may make it "easier", but I find it pretty easy to turn my steering wheel as it is when the mower is moving. It only becomes more difficult if I'm trying to turn the wheel while stationary. I keep the fittings well greased though.

Very original, not pinched at all from here.

Nice.

[@alanburgess8021]

There is a certain way the washers go so the needle bearings will ride properly

[@trbokmro]

Just one on top and one on bottom of the bearing

[@bigfella6629]

Couldnt do the bearing mod on my cadet as the steering arm is welded to the front crossmember.....bummer

[@trbokmro]

Oh nice, make it non serviceable…. Everything is disposable these days
