Upper Stub Axle Pivot for John Deere 5000 Series, Case IH CS/CX Series and Massey Ferguson 3600 Seri

Description

When your front wheels start feeling loose during tight turns or you notice that grinding noise coming from the front axle, it’s probably time to check your stub axle pivots. These critical components take tremendous abuse from constant steering forces, loader work, and the weight of your tractor bouncing over uneven ground. This upper stub axle pivot is the part that keeps your front wheels connected and steered properly, making it essential for safe operation whether you’re cultivating straight rows or making tight turns at headlands.

What You’re Getting

• Precision-machined upper pivot component that restores tight steering feel
• Durable construction designed to handle the stresses of daily farm work
• Direct replacement part that fits without modifications or adapters
• Works with corresponding lower pivot to complete the stub axle assembly

Built for Versatile Farm Work

This pivot fits a wide range of utility and row-crop tractors from John Deere’s 5000 series, Case IH CS and CX series, and Massey Ferguson 3600 series machines. These are the tractors you’ll find doing everything from hay operations and loader work to cultivation and transport duties on farms across the country. Whether you’re pushing silage with a loader, pulling a disc through heavy ground, or running a round baler through hilly hayfields, the front axle pivot components handle not just steering forces but also the torque from 4WD systems.

Made to Last

This isn’t just any pivot pin – it’s built to handle the brutal conditions that farm equipment faces every day. The hardened steel construction resists wear from dirt, moisture, and the constant stress of steering and oscillation. The precision machining ensures proper fit and smooth operation, while the material quality means it’ll hold up to years of hard use without developing the play that causes steering problems.

Good to Know

This is the upper pivot component – you’ll also need the corresponding lower pivot to complete the job. Installation requires supporting the tractor properly and removing the pivot pin, so it’s a good time to inspect all related components for wear. While you have the front end apart, check the condition of bushings and seals since worn pivots often indicate other components need attention too.
