Description

When your hydraulic three-point hitch gets sluggish or won’t hold position under load, the problem might be hiding inside your load control valve. This small but critical bushing keeps your load control shaft centered and sealed, preventing internal leakage that robs hydraulic power and makes your implements drop when you need them steady.

What You’re Getting

Precision-machined bushing that fits exactly where the original went
Tough construction designed to handle hydraulic pressure and constant movement
Direct replacement—no modifications or special tools needed
Works with the matching shaft (part 59164) and seal (part 58697) for complete rebuild
OEM-quality materials that stand up to farm hydraulic demands

Built for Real Farm Work

This bushing serves a huge range of classic John Deere tractors from the compact utility models up through the bigger row-crop machines. Whether you’re running a three-point disc behind your 2040, operating a heavy cultivator with your 3050, or using the hitch to handle implements on any of these workhorses, this bushing keeps your load control working like it should.

Made to Last

Farm hydraulics work hard with constant pressure cycles and contamination from field dust. This bushing is built to handle the punishment, maintaining proper clearances and preventing the metal-on-metal wear that destroys expensive valve bodies. When paired with a new shaft and seal, you’re getting a complete fix that’ll last for years.

Installation Notes

This is definitely a job for someone comfortable with hydraulic work—you’ll need to remove the valve assembly and press out the old bushing. Absolute cleanliness is critical since any dirt that gets in will damage your new parts immediately. Many folks tackle this during winter maintenance when there’s time to do it right.
