JD 260 Garden Tractor

Liquid_wrench · Apr 21, 2019

I have a John Deere 260 garden tractor with a 46" 3-blade deck. I need to change the spindle bearings in the center blade. I can't find a part # for just the bearings. Should I just buy the complete spindle assembly? The engine also needs an exhaust/muffler gasket and doesn't show a part # for that either ?..it's the FC540V 17HP Kawasaki engine. Can't even get the brakes to work.....geeez. Had the hydro fluid in the trans,(wrong fluid)i changed that to 80w90 gear lube had the wrong pto belt on it....got that fixed. No wonder the guy I bought it from only wanted 300.00.....lol
I still think is going to be a good little mower.....or at least I hope so.

Thanks for your help.

WHERE are you looking for parts?

Mother DEERE has an on-line parts lookup site... https://partscatalog.deere.com/jdrc/.

Looks to me like exhaust gasket is #M151899, and all 6 spindle bearings are the same, #JD9296, bearing industry standard part #204RR6-I.

If you take the spindle apart you will probably find that they are just generic bearings that should be readily available.

For the bearings

NAPA Bearings Line code BRG Part #204RR6
