I have removed the failed lower needle bearing from my cast wheel standard axle. The JD repair manual says that the upper thrust washer (M427T) has ears which should be inserted in slots in the tube. Well, no slots, but the new washer does have the ears.

What is the bearing surface for this thrust washer supposed to look like?

Thanks in advance for your time and trouble to reply. Also, I assume my email address is somewhere, feel free to contact me.
 
I repaired mine by putting a tapered roller bearing in the bottom and a oil lite bushing in the top,steers much better now and everything is tighter.
 
Cole, I call myself scratching all around this surface. I'll check again, but I have seen no sign of the slots. All the grease has been removed.

I would have thought that the surface for the washer to bear on would be flat. But there is a groove around the outside of this surface about 1/8" deep, leaving a shoulder about 3/16" wide adjacent to the tube opening.

Again, thanks for replying. I know I still need help on this!
 
Cole, something that may help me search for those slots. What is the orientation of the slots to the horizontal axle tube?
 
Sounds to me like your tube is worn out. You could lay the new washer on it and mark it and then file the slots in for the tabs or you could just replace it.
