Description

When your grain drill starts getting sloppy on the pivot points or you’re hearing more rattles than you used to, worn main arm bushings are usually the culprit. These little guys take a beating from all the bouncing and vibration of working rough ground, but when they start wearing out, your drill won’t track as straight or maintain proper depth control like it should.

What You’re Getting

Precision-sized bushing that fits the main arm pivot points perfectly
Durable construction that handles the constant stress of field operations
Set of two bushings since you’ll want to replace both sides at once
Direct OEM replacement that installs just like the originals

Built for Real Farm Work

This bushing fits John Deere grain drills from the 1560 series through the bigger 1990 models – the workhorses you see putting in beans, wheat, and cover crops across thousands of acres every season. These drills see everything from smooth prepared seedbeds to rough, trashy ground, and the main arm bushings are what keep the drill tracking true through it all.

Made to Last

Farm equipment bushings need to handle dirt, moisture, and constant movement without binding up or wearing out quickly. This replacement is built to the same specs as what John Deere put in there originally, so you get the smooth operation and durability your drill was designed for.

Good to Know

You’ll need to support the drill frame and remove the main arm pin to swap these out – it’s not a quick roadside fix, but it’s straightforward shop work. While you’ve got things apart, check the condition of the pins too, since worn bushings sometimes score the pins they ride on.
