dmhill 43 #1 Posted July 21, 2019 I have several spindles I would like to have "rebuilt" (new bearings, cleaned up). Does anyone on here do them frequently? The first set is of a B82. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goldnboy 963 #2 Posted July 21, 2019 I have done several but, those are a lot of work! But you get better quality from doing your own rebuild! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ohiofarmer 3,314 #3 Posted July 21, 2019 That spindle appears to be a 'double D" and made of steel or cast iron. Much better IMHO than the aluminum ones. You CAN still get new blades for them. There are bearing supply houses that can supply bearings based on size of bore, outside diameter,ect. Also the experts here can help you get the correct bearings. You already did the hard part by removing them. I would suggest using a high quality penetrating oil/solvent like Deep Creep sprayed on by applying jst a bit each day for a week to make removal easy to do. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ol550 830 #4 Posted July 21, 2019 (edited) I have replaced several of this style. Bearings can be found onfor a fair price. Best to remove with a press. You can press on the shaft for removal, but pressing on anything other than the outer race can damage the bearing. Do not use a hammer for installation!!! AND be aware that the grooved section of shaft goes down. Edited July 21, 2019 by ol550 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,771 #5 Posted July 22, 2019 That is spindle housing # 105074 and I have 3 of them on Ebay NOW. You would only need to buy 3 of Wheelhorse bearing # 103119....and press them into the housings to have 3 completely rebuilt spindles. Many times I see a set of 3 bearings #103119 on Ebay for around $70...or less. Contact me at my email address, which is: daveoman@windstream.net We can probably work out a deal here...I'll press in the bearings, if you buy and have them delivered to me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
