Kit contains everything needed to upgrade from bushings to bearings
These are exact fit for the most popular ride on mowers and an upgrade to the bushings. The kit comes with double the number of washers you need in case there is slack in the tire you are using. It took me about an hour to replace both bushings with this kit and the kit contains everything needed to do the change replacing all the hardware. It also has the grease for the axle/spindle to make it easier to mount and prevent rust, as well as new plastic dust covers. You will need 6 tools to do the change. Hammer and rod/big screwdriver to knock out the existing bushings, 27mm or similar socket to hammer in the new bearings, another smaller flathead screwdriver to remove the retainer clip and needle nose pliers or similar to reinstall the retainer clip. Lastly, a jack to raise the front end of the mower.

Second kit, works great
Fairly easy to convert bushings to bearings for better operation. Has everything you need other than tools.

Complete kit to get rid of those stock bushings!
Wow, I was impressed with how complete this kit was. I recently purchased a 20 year old Husqvarna YTH1848XP that I'm rebuilding. The bushings gave me some grief getting them out, but these bearings fit perfectly. They provided plenty of inner and outer shims to make them fit perfectly with no slop. It's a 2 minute job after getting the OEM bushings out. The bearings rolled very smooth, and look like they'll last a long time. Great value!

Good product overall.
I would recommend this product, with or without a new tire w/rim purchase. I seems to be quality product. I did think that the small grease packet was insufficient, in my opinion.

Good replacement for those wheel bushings
Work and fit good for my craftsman LT1000. Will update if they fail prematurely or anything like that but for like $12 they’re probably worth it anyway

Good Value, Good Product
This set of bearings and accessories is an (almost) complete solution for worn or failed front wheel bearings on many garden tractors. In my case, the left wheel came off while I was mowing, and one of the two plastic sleeve bearings was lost. I could have replaced the plastic bearings, but this kit with its steel ball bearings appeared to be an upgrade at lower cost. The kit arrived quickly and was easy enough to install, although the bearings had to be pressed into the wheel hubs. I don't have a press, so I drove them in with a hammer and a 1/2" drive socket. On my tractor, the wheels are retained with cotter pins, one of which had sheared off and caused the wheel to depart the machine. Cotter pins are not included in this kit, so I purchased them separately at the local big box. Good product at an exceptional price.

Very nice. Should make timing much easier.
Very easy install. Just be careful when installing that there isn't to many or any washers on the inside of the axal. Cost me allot of time and frustration trying to figure out why I couldn't get the wheel all the way on. I needed to take all the washers off. Then it popped right on.
