Default New style Haban casters

Ok guys need some input here. Any of you rebuild the new style haban front casters? OE wheels look to have bushings and sleeves with 1/2 inch bolts going through. Bushings are 1.382 OD and ID is for 3/4 inch shafts. The OD of the sleeves are .750 and ID is for the 1/2 inch bolts.

Just trying to source this stuff locally without paying an arm and a leg but my local bearing store can't get the bushings. I picked up the right ID OD "wheelbarrow" bearings as they call them which looks like it will work but wondering if they're too light duty to hold up against the mighty Haban.

Wheel bushings look almost exactly like the O front rim ones but ID is different

Thinking about trying to find some pipe to make the sleeves but hoping someone has a source and numbers that have done theirs. I'm re using the wheels btw.

I'd bet that the wheel barrow bearings will work just fine if you keep them greased. Here is a link for some tube that should work for bushings.

If your in a rush you could cut the existing bushings in 1/2 and reinstall them with the worn part to the center.

Thanks for the link Sam. I might just do the cut the sleeve in half method temporarily.

You better check the OD. Measure where the bushing fits into the wheel. I'm assuming that it's 1.375". If it is you may want to look at something like this for a bearing and eliminate the spacer.

Any decent welding shop worth it's salt should have bushing stock in various ID's and OD's
Those cheap WB bearings are just that, cheap.
Think you would be much better off w/the higher quality type that are in Cub front wheels.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
