Questions & Answers

Can you provide steering gear for a x500 lawn tractor by John Deere?

In my case, I went to John Deere and bought the gear in the store, and the gear is made of a much better material than the parts I bought on line, which were not John Deere parts.

Is this the right size for an ?

I have never looked at an L111, so I cannot say for sure.

What type of screw do you have for the steering sector plate? What is the part number for the screw ?

A store is not what I am. Your local John Deere distributor should be able to assist you.

It shows two bushings on the pictures. What is the reason for that? Wouldn't it suffice if you had one for steering only?

On the steering shaft there are two bushings, an upper one and a lower one. It is therefore necessary to purchase

Excellent product, and I am impressed with its longevity
4/5

It is a little challenging to install (I should have watched more online videos before starting) but I got it done and it works well. You will steer the mower like a new one and these parts shouldn't wear out so quickly if you do those things. EDIT

The only reason I gave it only four stars was that I forgot to mention any factors. As part of the kit, only one of the bolts (and in my case, the one that was in a better and more reusable condition) connects the sector gear to the mounting plate. I had to literally scrape off a piece of debris and reattach another that I did not include. They could not possibly have not included it for any reason. It appears that two plastic bushings were included when only one was needed, so maybe this was an error in packaging.

There is a very limited life span on the gear box
3/5

It is made out of such inferior material that all my efforts in replacing the steering wheel for the first time went to waste since the steering only lasted for one season. Now I have to replace it It has been two years since I replaced the steering gear on my beloved, ancient John Deere with an item bought from another seller.

It saved me a lot of money over high priced dealer parts
5/5

The price was reasonable, and the shipping was fast. While some reviewers have complained of poor quality, you may be satisfied with the results if you install it correctly and shim it properly. Over rough terrain, I've operated the machine for approximately 20 hours and have not had any problems.

Your money is not worth it
3/5

Rather than buying John Deere parts, buy John Deere parts. It lasted for 10 seasons in its original form. During this mowing, it lasted six times. A gear roundover had worn out the pivot slide had gained grooves and the gears round over. It is not hard enough to be metal. Your money is not worth it.

This is a good This is an exact match
5/5

must be a special hell for the engineers responsible for designing the nuts and bolts of this work of art. Has a 13 on the test. There is a socket and wrench for the 14/15/17/ 3/4 inches. There's no point in having just one of each. An unsuspecting weld nut has no idea what it.

Initial use of the Pinion Gear resulted in a stripped gear
3/5

There is no way to use the steel used to manufacture the pinion gear. All it took was one pass around the yard to strip it Money was wasted on such a useless project.

The new one seems to work fine, but the old one wouldn't come JD came up with an awful design
3/5

Under the bracket there are compression nuts that you can't get at with a wrench.

Exactly what I was looking for! This is what the John Deere LA 140 looks like A problem with the steering has occurred
5/5

I watched a video on how to replace the steering on YouTube. The deck can be removed (4 pins) and the belt from the clutch removed. Just slide it under the mower and you can get to the parts.
