No problem, it went smoothly. I think it took longer for me to get the jack out and jack it up then to replace the part. Very pleased and I will use SearsPartsDirect again if I need anymore parts for my mower.

Took an hour to install, you won't need the axle bushings, but you will need to either replace or swipe the existing plastic bushing in the center. Cheap fix for an otherwise perfectly great mower

not easy to install

the center pivot hole is about 1/8" larger than the original. I found a bathroom support SS tube to be the the spacer needed to install. it must be cut and honed to fit the bolt. Good luck!

The install was easy once I realized what parts had to come off first. I took mean hour to disassemble but 20 min to put back togetherl

Right part, easy to find, not hateful expensive
July 27, 2021

It was easy to find the part with the manual for my Craftsman tractor I found online. Once I ordered the part, it took about five days to arrive, but it was the correct part and free from any defects. This was not a difficult repair with the correct tools, either. All I had were a one-ton jack, 1/2", 9/16", and 15/16" wrenches and sockets, and a couple screw drivers (wheel and bearing clips).
