Description
When your front axle starts making that unsettling knocking sound over rough ground or your steering feels loose and wandering, chances are good you’re dealing with worn stub pivot components. This lower stub pivot works with the upper pivot (part 52978) to keep your front wheels properly aligned and your steering tight. It’s one of those critical parts that you don’t think about until it starts causing problems – then it becomes a safety issue real quick.
What You’re Getting
- Lower pivot component specifically engineered for Carraro 707 and 709 axle assemblies
- Precision-machined surfaces that eliminate play and restore proper steering geometry
- Heavy-duty construction designed to handle the constant stress of field work and loader operations
- Works as part of a two-piece system with upper pivot 52978 for complete restoration
Built for Real Farm Work
This pivot fits a wide range of popular utility and row-crop tractors including Ford New Holland 30 series machines like the 3430 and 4830, John Deere 5000 series utility tractors, and various Case IH models from compact 95 series units up through larger 2000 series machines. These are the workhorses you see doing everything from hay operations to row-crop farming, and they all depend on tight front-end components for safe operation.
Made to Last
The Carraro 707 and 709 axles in these tractors see hard use, especially on loader-equipped machines. This pivot is built to handle the constant pivoting motion that comes with following ground contours, plus the additional stress from loader work and four-wheel drive operation where applicable.
Installation Notes
This lower pivot works with upper pivot 52978 – you’ll typically want to replace both at the same time for even wear and proper function. Front axle work requires proper support and safety procedures, so plan accordingly. While you’re in there, it’s a good time to check other front-end components for wear.
