I am new to the site and am looking for help, I have a Ford 800 that I bought used 2 yrs. ago (not sure the year) and I need a front RT spindle. I ordered the spindle (Part # 957E3105) as was called for with my research and it is not the correct spindle. The one I need has a key that is inserted from the top and sticks out a bit from the top of the steering arm, the spindle that I received was machined to have a key that does not stick out from the top. Additionally the angle seems to be off when installed the tire sits at an angle to where the tire rubs on the steering arm. I spoke with a gentleman who explained to me that there is a possibility that a previous owner may have replace the Axle knee extension with one from a different model and there should be a number cast into the knee and that will tell me what spindle I need...there is not number cast into that knee that I can find except for a 95 on that front of the knee near where it bolts to the axle. any help would be greatly appreciated, and I thank you in advance for your time.
 
Best place to get the correct part is a Ford/New Holland dealer and take the old spindle with you so they can match it up. You may have an 801 series also which could be a tad bit different in that area.
Easy way to know for sure what you have is take a look at the model number and serial number which is on the left side below the battery. You should see 2 horizontal bolt holes and right above them is a flat spot that will have both the model and serial number. Here is an example and is part of what is on my ford 801 series 841S model which has a 4 speed

841S

Top number is the model and the lower number is the serial number which can be used to find what year it is
 

Thank you for your help with this, I have (what I believe is the correct spindle) and am waiting for new bearings, hopefully with all of that I can get it back together correctly.

Thanks again, your assistance was greatly appreciated.
