Description
When your front wheel starts wobbling or you’re feeling loose play in the steering, it’s often the wheel hub that’s worn out from decades of field work. A bad hub doesn’t just make annoying noises—it can cause dangerous wheel separation that’ll leave you stranded or worse. This replacement front wheel hub gets your classic Fordson Major series back to the solid, dependable steering it had when it first rolled off the assembly line.
What You’re Getting
- Direct replacement hub that mounts just like the original—no modifications needed
- Sturdy construction built to handle the stresses of loader work and road travel
- Precision-machined bearing surfaces for smooth operation and long service life
- Ready for your existing wheel studs (note: wheel studs sold separately as part 62913)
- Exact fit for Major, Super Major, and Power Major models
Built for Real Farm Work
Your Fordson Major series tractor was built to be a workhorse, whether it’s the original Major from the early 1950s, the improved Super Major, or the more powerful Power Major. These tractors still earn their keep today pulling hay equipment, running PTO implements, and handling loader duties around the farmyard. All that work puts serious stress on the front hubs, especially when you’re making tight turns with a loaded bucket or navigating rough ground.
Made to Last
This hub is manufactured to the same specifications as the original Ford part, using quality materials that can handle the vibration, impacts, and side loads these old tractors dish out. The bearing races are precisely machined to ensure your wheel bearings seat properly and last as long as they should. Unlike some aftermarket hubs that wear out quickly, this one’s built for the long haul.
Good to Know
Hub replacement is a job that requires proper tools and techniques—you’ll need to support the tractor safely and remove the wheel, brake components, and old hub carefully. When installing the new hub, make sure to use fresh bearings and seals, properly packed with quality bearing grease. The wheel studs are sold separately (part number 62913), so order those if yours are damaged or missing. Take your time with bearing preload adjustment—it’s critical for safe operation.
