Yup.Go out and get a grease gun and grease. There are grease zerks on the following:
The front wheels in the back of the wheel The front axles where the axle meets the spindle The center of the front axle where the axle attaches to the tractor And probably other places.Pump grease in till it comes out the ends. Then wipe off. I hope you haven't galled the spindle to axle connection, however if you do not grease it you will and you will also break the pillow bearing.
Do it now. Everyone else on the list, have you greased your tractor? If not it's a matter of time till you get a new axle.

The steering on my E-15 has gotten way too stiff. I can't turn it very far to the right any more. I am not much of a mechanic, but I assume that something needs to be lubricated. Can someone explain what I should lubricate, with what, and how? thanks, Steve Gaarder _______________________________________________ Elec-trak mailing list Elec-trak cosmos phy tufts edu https://cosmos.phy.tufts.edu/mailman/listinfo/elec-trak
