Description

When your planter starts wobbling through the field or those closing wheels aren’t rolling as smooth as they should, it’s usually those little bearings taking a beating. Double-Row Ball Bearing for Gauge / Closing Wheels solve a common planter problem – you get one bearing that replaces two separate 203JD bearings, simplifying your repair and getting you back to planting faster. This compact design handles all the dirt, moisture, and constant rolling that closing wheels endure season after season.

What You’re Getting

Single double-row bearing replaces two 203JD bearings for simpler installation
Precision .669-inch bore fits standard closing wheel applications
AgSmart quality construction built specifically for agricultural use
Sealed design keeps dirt and moisture out while keeping grease in
1.02-inch inner ring width provides proper support for closing wheel loads

Built for Real Farm Work

This bearing fits in closing wheel assemblies where you’re dealing with constant soil contact and the side loads that come from working in less-than-perfect field conditions. Whether you’re planting corn through heavy residue or putting soybeans in behind the tillage, these closing wheels need to roll smooth and true to do their job of firming soil around the seed.

Made to Last

Farm bearings take abuse that would destroy automotive bearings in a matter of hours. This AgSmart bearing is designed specifically for the dirt, moisture, chemicals, and constant shock loads that come with planting operations. The double-row design distributes loads better than two separate bearings, reducing stress points that cause early failure.

Installation Notes

This bearing drops right into the SMA43898 closing wheel where the original 203JD bearings lived. Clean out all the old grease and debris before installing – that gritty mix acts like grinding compound. Pack with quality wheel bearing grease, and you’ll have smooth-rolling closing wheels that do their job properly.
