Description
When your planter’s row units start sagging or not following ground contours like they should, it’s usually those parallel arms that are worn out from thousands of acres of planting. This 23-inch extended lower parallel arm is a critical part of what keeps your row units riding at the right depth and angle, ensuring consistent seed placement whether you’re planting corn, soybeans, or other row crops.
What You’re Getting
- Extended 23-inch length provides better ground-following capability than standard arms
- Replaces one worn arm per row unit – you’ll need to match the other three arms for best performance
- Direct replacement that bolts right into your existing brackets and pivot points
- Heavy-duty construction built to handle the constant flexing and loads of field work
- Compatible with a wide range of John Deere planter models from MaxEmerge 2 through Exact Emerge systems
Built for Serious Planting Work
This arm works on John Deere equipment including XP planters, XP-Pro units, Max Emerge 5 systems, Exact Emerge planters, and the 1530 and 1535 drill units. These are the machines you count on for getting your corn and soybeans in the ground right the first time, where proper seed depth and spacing can make or break your yield potential.
Made to Last
Parallel arms take tremendous stress as they guide each row unit up and down over field contours while maintaining proper toolbar geometry. This extended arm is built with quality materials and proper heat treatment to withstand the constant flexing, dirt, and moisture that comes with planting season. The AgSmart construction matches OEM specifications for reliable performance.
Installation Notes
This is a straightforward replacement job that most farmers can handle with basic shop tools. You’ll want to replace all four parallel arms on a row unit at the same time if they’re showing wear – mixing new and old arms can cause binding and uneven wear. While you’ve got things apart, it’s a good time to check the bushings and pivot points for wear and grease everything properly.
