Thanks -- the only documentation I have is the attached image from the parts manual, printed out for me by the local Deere dealer, and it matches my tractor. It appears to match your description, too, except that there is no evidence of oil in the shattered parts, but running out of lubrication could be the reason for the failure! There is however at least a tablespoon or two of graphite powder around all the parts. Could the missing oil have been an oil/graphite mix, and the graphite be all that remains? While I have replacements for the spindle and bearing (and gaskets), I still have just the original "hub" (#14 on the parts page image, with the pulleys), showing a lot of wear in the rear opening. Plus there is this mysterious sheet-metal cone, not shown in this diagram possibly simply because it is interior, which I am beginning to assume was originally a part of the hub assembly, but which broke loose from the damage. It seems pretty clear to me now that I need to replace the hub assembly as well. In its current condition, the interior of the hub and hence the bearing is in no way sealed (either to keep lubricant in or dirt/water out). I wish I had a decent picture of it. (Well, I wish I had full replacement instructions, too!)
