Dearborn 20-5 lime and fertilizer spreader

Jason S. · Jan 31, 2015

I know this should be on the implements forum but I figured there was more guys on this board that had used one so here goes. I bought a Dearborn 20-5 lime and fertilizer spreader because I was wanting to spread some lime. The agitator is in good shape but the bearings have frozen up solid. Has anybody on here ever had the bearing housings apart. Is there a needle bearing in there or some other kind of bearing? Thanks for all your help.

Jason,
If you go to the little N Club forum site they have a couple of pieces of literature for that model including a parts list and owners manual.

I looked over there but all the manuals are showing is the whole bearing assembly. That's why I was hoping somebody on here had taken one apart before. I believe the bearings stayed the same on thru the 801 series spreader.

Most of the old gearboxes had taper bearings,which can usually be found at a bearing supply or online.
