60" deck spindle rebuild?
I have a 2018 Pro Z 160 and the last few times I mowed the deck sounded funny with the blades running. I removed the deck this morning and the center spindle needs replacement or new bearings.
This is what is shown for replacement on the CC website when I search my model number and the next picture is the top of my removed spindle. Has anyone replaced bearings in this type spindle? It looks like an upper and lower sealed bearing that are joined or connected with a tube that is pressed into both bearing inner races. I ordered a new spindle assembly but would like to rebuild this for a spare as the pulley and shaft are in good condition. Any insight on rebuilding this type spindle would be appreciated.

Not knowing that specific spindle but it looks like unbolt that plate and push out the bearings
Remember when putting in new sealed bearings to remove the inner seal so grease can lube the bearings There is heaps of info on here about rebuilding and types of bearings for spindles There is even a You-tube video on how to easily convert a non lube spindle to a lube spindle by installing a grease nipple/zerk Oz

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.
