Good To Know

Q: Will this spindle fit my Cub Cadet deck? A: It cross-references 618-06981 and 918-06981 for 50 inch decks, so confirm your model and serial number before ordering. Q: Why replace all three spindles at once? A: Spindles tend to wear at similar rates, so replacing the set at once keeps the deck balanced and saves another teardown later.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
