Description
If you’ve noticed a clunking noise from your final drive or felt some play in the drivetrain when turning, there’s a good chance one of these little set screws has worked loose or sheared off. These screws might be small, but they’re doing a critical job – keeping the planetary gears properly positioned in your tractor’s final drive assembly so all that power gets transferred smoothly to the wheels.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-threaded set screw designed specifically for planetary drive assemblies
- High-strength steel construction that handles the constant stress of power transmission
- Exact fit for John Deere planetary gear systems across multiple tractor series
- Direct replacement that restores proper gear positioning and eliminates drivetrain noise
Built for Real Farm Work
This set screw works across a wide range of John Deere tractors from the utility-focused 6M series to the high-tech 6R models. Whether you’re running a 6135M on loader duty around the farmyard, pulling heavy tillage with a 6175R, or doing precision field work with GPS-guided equipment, these tractors put serious torque through their planetary drives every day.
Made to Last
Planetary drive components see tremendous stress as they reduce engine RPMs down to wheel speed while multiplying torque. This set screw is heat-treated to handle those loads without loosening or breaking under the constant hammering of field work, loader operations, and heavy pulling.
Good to Know
When replacing these screws, it’s a good time to check the gear oil level and condition in your final drive. Clean out any metal particles around the screw threads before installation, and use the specified torque – too loose and they’ll work out again, too tight and you might strip the threads. A dab of thread locker helps ensure they stay put through thousands of hours of operation.
