GT 2550 steering bushings
 
I have a 2009 GT 2550 with 70 hours. While changing oil I noticed some play in the steering. After inspecting I found that the bushings one the end of the drag link that bolts to the steering gear assy where worn. 941-0475 Just plastic bushings. Are there any brass replacements or do I just replace every 70 hours.

You could measure them and see if Granger has them in stock.
Possibly Jeff in Pa. could make them for you, if Granger has nothing that would work.:bigthink:

Measure the ID and OD and order some bronze bushings from McMaster (click on Flanged Sleeve Bearings)

I will do. That place has everything. I got some tie rod ends that were HIGH quality and way less than cub cadet. Thanks for the reply.

Several years ago now I was searching for a replacement bushing for my steering and ordered these. I don’t really remember now why I didn’t go with bronze but these have held up for me better than the OEM ones.
