Description
When your planter starts dropping uneven populations or the row units bounce too much during field work, worn parallel arm bushings are often the culprit. These small but critical bushings keep your planter’s parallel linkage moving smoothly, maintaining proper seed depth and spacing even when you’re running at speed across uneven ground. A worn bushing throws off the whole system, leading to poor stands and spotty emergence.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-molded bushing that eliminates play in your row unit’s parallel linkage
- Proper .655 inch inner diameter and 1.086 inch outer diameter for exact fit
- .827 inch length provides full support across the entire pivot point
- Durable material that handles the constant flexing and dust of field conditions
- Direct replacement – no modifications needed to get back to planting
Built for Modern Planting Operations
This bushing fits the full range of John Deere’s modern planters, from Pro and XP series up through the latest MaxEmerge 5 and ExactEmerge units. Whether you’re planting corn, soybeans, or specialty crops, maintaining tight tolerances in your row units is what separates good stands from great ones. One bushing per row unit keeps things simple during maintenance season.
Made to Last
Planter bushings take a beating – constant pivoting action, dirt infiltration, and the shock loads that come from hitting rocks or running through rough ground. This AgSmart replacement is engineered to handle those conditions while maintaining the tight tolerances your precision planting system depends on. Quality materials resist wear and keep your linkage operating smoothly season after season.
Installation Notes
Replacing these bushings is straightforward but plan on doing the whole planter at once – if one’s worn out, the rest are probably close behind. A bushing driver or press makes the job much easier than trying to pound them in with a hammer. Check the pivot bolts and linkage arms while you’re in there, as worn bushings often cause accelerated wear on other components.
