Additional Information

The MTD Lawn Tractor Axle Flange Bearing (part number 741-0516B) supports the axle at the wheel rim to minimize rolling resistance and promote smooth wheel rotation. It replaces part numbers 741-0516A and 941-0516.

If you notice uneven cutting, steering difficulty, or unusual noises from the wheels, the axle flange bearing may be worn or damaged. Replacing the bearing can improve maneuverability and reduce stress on the drivetrain.

Wear work gloves to protect your hands and use wrenches and pliers to complete the installation. Refer to the service manual for your model or consult a technician if you need help with installation.
