Description

When your three-point hitch starts feeling sloppy or won’t hold position like it used to, worn lift shaft bushings are often the culprit. This steel bushing takes up the slop in your hydraulic lift system, bringing back the precise control you need for everything from cultivating to loader work.

What You’re Getting

Durable steel construction that outlasts standard brass bushings in heavy use
Precision machined to restore proper clearances in your lift mechanism
Eliminates excessive play that causes implements to drift or bounce
Direct replacement for worn original bushings without modifications
Helps maintain consistent hydraulic pressure for reliable lifting

Built for Real Farm Work

Your Ford Major is a workhorse that’s probably been lifting implements for decades. Whether you’re running a plow, cultivator, or rear blade, you need that hydraulic lift to respond predictably. Worn bushings let the lift shaft wobble, causing your implements to drift down when they should stay put, or bounce when you hit bumps.

Made to Last

While brass bushings have their place, this steel version is the choice when you need maximum durability. Steel handles the constant movement and hydraulic pressures better than softer materials, especially if your lift system sees daily use. The precise machining ensures oil can flow properly for lubrication while maintaining the tight tolerances needed to eliminate slop.

Installation Notes

Replacing lift shaft bushings means getting into your hydraulic system, so you’ll need to drain the oil and remove the lift cover. Clean everything thoroughly since old bushings often leave debris that can damage new parts. While you’re in there, check the lift shaft itself for scoring or wear.
