Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know this spindle fits my deck? A: Check that your machine runs a 46 inch deck and that your current spindle matches the 918-06977A reference. Comparing the old part against the listed number is the quickest confirmation.

Q: Why replace spindles in pairs? A: Spindles on the same deck wear at similar rates, so changing both at once avoids a second teardown soon after. A matched pair also helps keep blade height consistent across the cut.

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