Has anyone else noticed that the blade nut on these are a lot tighter than on the original spindles? ...&amp; no, I'm not crossthreading.

I noticed the one that I got was tight and when I studied it I saw it was deliberately machine stamped on the end to make it tight. I presume its similar to a nylon nut or lock washer to prevent unwanted loosening

I can tell you mine is a 2007 model with the same part number for the spindle and they worked perfect for mine. I would replace all three and make sure you order all new bolts also. About half of the old bolts broke off in the old spindles. Do your research on the bolts, I found a big swing in price range depending on availability.

some spindle assy come no threads. I went to fastenal and bought the bolts and nuts and put the spindleon the deck. Note that you have self locking nuts to where nuts will not back off your bolt

I put these on my Sears Craftsman and one at work which was a Snow Chief they got from Coast-To-Coast many years ago. Seems all the small gas/oil mix are the same. I drilled out the rivets and used small nuts and bolts to put the new blades in. Best to check the scrapper bar on the bottom to see if you need a new one, usually do.

There is a "butterfly" nut where the blade is that you can loosen to move the blade out or in for thinner or thicker pealing. Tighten nut when done. I had to adjust mine when mine was new and it made a world of difference.

Thank you for considering AMC Parts Store for your mower parts.The other answers here are helpful clues. There is rarely a manufacturer defect in the blades. Also, sometimes the spindle assembly may be rounded out a bit, not allowing the blade to properly fit.

redo it again, start off at a different position when you start to screw it on, it should fit exactly on there. are you using the crusher nut too? there are a few youtube vids on it too broski

Well the mounting bolts I received with mine didn't fit properly(head to big). It bothered me so much that the following week I removed them and used the original ones, with thread lock of course.

Joe, Not that I know of, I drilled four 3/8" holes in my spinner disc and use tempered 8"x 1/8" metal instead of the trimmer line that came with the Swisher unit. These metal lines work great and I got them from my local small engine repair shop, I do not know where he got them from.

I did some googling and see what your version looks like. I think you do have the new version. Mine looks exactly like the one in the picture. My understanding is that this model was discontinued, so maybe what happened is they brought it back again and changed the appearance slightly. For what it's worth, I think this is my #1 favorite tool in my woodworking shop. Solid, reliable, and fits perfectly in the hand. I'd be curious to know if there are any functional differences between the old and new models.

Not sure what issue you're having trouble w/ on the 3 spindle wheels. Mine have the 3 spindle & I've not had any trouble w/ them.

I ordered the ones with self locking nut... No problem.... However I didn't see where there was a big difference in flight I'm back using original bladed

Not recommended. You can create threads on steel that does not have thread, or clean up existing threads, but changing thread would be problematic easier to buy new nut.

It's the wrong shaft I think. I have heard that lowes hardware and sears carry a brand that has many attachments and work together. I've not tried them but both these companies carry husqvarna equipment.

I got mine yesterday (5/14/14), and the pin issue has been fixed. It has a bolt now like the picture in the description. I will try to upload a picture if I can figure out how, but at least the pair I got does not have a pin. I haven't used them yet, but they look and feel sturdy to me and the grips feel much nicer than my old wooden handle ones.

Since you are changing out the spindles, it should fit. Don't forget, the bolts. Make sure you notice that the blade hole configure is different than stock, when you go to get new blades.

Also make sure that you order extra bolts. Four for each spindle. They did not come with the bundle package. And you will need 3 nuts that hold the blades on. None of which came with the package that I ordered.
