I recently had the pin hole for the right lift arm fail on a 2004 john deere 5105.
Has anyone else had this issue.
I am in the process of replacing the right axle housing with a used one.
Does anyone know the torque for the bolt in the end of the axle and the torque for the axle house retaining bolts.
Thanks in advance IMG_1727.JPG

I do not have the service tech manual, but suspect your Deere dealer can bring that up on the computer with that torque information.

jdparts appears to show a spring pin (2 on each pin [part no. R139197] ) that keeps the nuts on each end from coming unthreaded. Does that fit with what you have?

Any idea what may have caused that casting failure?

What were you hooked up to when it let loose?

I have a PDF of the technical manual for your tractor, if wanted, shoot me your email.
