In this episode I will be replacing a spindle, changing the oil and giving a general tune-up and clean up on my Snapper 360z zero turn. Edited by YouCut:app.youcut.net/BestEditor
New subscriber. I am retired mechanic vehicle and jet aircraft. A tip if you don't mind on doing the oil change and after you have that tube then reach up and take the dipstick out as it lets atmospheric air push the oil faster out of the crankcase.
6 1/2 hours!Id be wore out and put up wet to pappy.😂You remind me of my Uncle Sydney R.I.P..I'm running that Zt 50 cub cadet it needs these replaced figured I stop in and get ahead of the game.Subbed up..❤
That is a heavy deck. Maybe plywood first and follow with creeper or dolly. Drop the deck and roll her out! I was lucky with my Gravely deck spindles. They knock apart easy and use 6203 2RS bearings - Ebay 10 for $15. Like your chain fall better than my cable come along, but I am cheap Ha Ha Ha. Added zerks and a clamping grease nozzle. Takes a bunch of pumps though. I left the plastic seals on and they grease up fine.
3:06 I have 3 of those types of lifts ( from Harbor Freight ) & I love them, the ONLY thing I DON'T like is the Lift / Lower chain loop is too long, sometimes whenever I get a welder out to my place I will cut a section out of it & have the welder patch the ends back together
The Snapper , Symplicity and now Stihl arre owned by Briggs and Stratton along with Ferris. Many of the mowers are simple rebrands but not all so the parts are interchangeable between name plates.
did your new spindle come with threaded bolt holes? I ordered new spindles and mine were all clean straight through holes nothing for my bolts to thread into
@@keithwallick7440 do you know what size bolt and how long you went with and also what combination of washers you used? Ill just order everything vs ho try and match it all up at hardware store
Why pull the deck my husband just changed both spindles on ours and didn't need to remove it. Someone told him years ago do things smarter not harder. He's disabled so removing deck would of been a lot more unnecessary work.
Yeah I suppose it depends on the model or how many spindles you have. Maybe some are easier to access than others. Mine was difficult to get to the center one. But you have a point.
