M5 Front Spindle

W.G.Michaelis · Apr 6, 2022

I recently broke the right (as viewed from the tractor seat) front spindle on my 1961 MM M5 UTS. This is a wide front end solid axle tractor, not a row crop. Apparently they were popular only here in Western Kansas. I'm still searching salvage yards but haven't come up with anything yet. Any help out there?

Years ago I broke one on a row crop front. I had a machine shop make a new shaft out of stress proof. It's till in there today.

Got a call from one of my contacts in Washington, KS and he said he had a front axle with the knuckle still on the left side but they were identical parts with the same part number. Shipping from Washington, KS will surely be cheaper, but thanks very much for your response.
