Pins and bushes

[tinman]

Need a one for the front of the JD3800
All the rest are tight, but this one certainly isn`t
JD want £166 for the pin and £66 for each bush

and there could be good reason for that.
i have no idea as to the sizes here but youl find it aint no mild steel pin or bush there.
its either a case hardened pin or a hard pin and the bushings will equally be as hard if not harder.

how many hours did the original pin do?, 300 odd could be cheap in the long run unless its a standard size and likes of digger bushings and pins will suffice but by the time you have all that tracked down and modified to lth the 300 might look alright.

Buy the genuine pin. That isn't maga over priced imo
The bushes will I expect be what they can split tension bushings. Like a massive roll pin.

Not always easy sourced but possible. Try steerforth, Digits etc

Or even matbro bushes might be right? What the size of it?

I'm a John Deere fan but they are absolutely terrible for weird sized stuff, and when you speak to the manufacturer they are "protected parts" and they cannot supply, example is bearings in the round baler, £8.50 from bearing supplier before jd shut that door, £22 ish from JD dealer. pansies barstewards and thieves. Ps not the dealer, their hands are tied.
