Additional Information
For those looking to replace the mandrel assembly on a riding lawn mower, helpful DIY instructions, including a step-by-step video, can be found here. These instructions guide you through the entire process, making it easier to complete the replacement accurately and efficiently.
When installing mandrel assembly 587819701, it's important to note that the mounting holes in the housing are not pre-threaded. Instead, the assembly includes self-tapping bolts specifically designed to create their own threads as you attach the housing to the tractor deck. This self-tapping feature makes installation simpler by securely anchoring the mandrel without requiring pre-threaded holes, ensuring a stable and durable fit.
To install, align the housing carefully with the tractor deck, insert each self-tapping bolt, and tighten it gradually. This technique allows the bolts to form secure threads in the mounting holes without over-tightening, which helps avoid stripping the metal. Once properly installed, the mandrel assembly provides reliable support for the mower blades, promoting smooth operation and efficient grass cutting.

Perfect fit
Perfect replacement for original spindle. To make it easier, I tapped the holes before mounting rather than using the bolts to cut the threads. Older Craftsman riding mower.

Poor quality
This mandrel / spindle works but I'm disappointed with this product. Due to poor machining the bearing fell out of the race it was "pressed" in to. Had to bolt pulley in place to keep it together

Don't know waiting for mower deck
Hard to say when the mower deck might make it to me. you keep changing the dates. after I receive the deck and put it together then I might know how it works, unless we believe in a Christmas MIRACLE.
