John Deere 2850 Front Axle Hub Lock Nut tool

[weevilknievel]

Hi Everyone,

This is my first post

I'm rebuilding the front MFWD planetary hub on my John Deere 2850 and I dont have the tool that will fit the hub lock nut (lock nut is JD part number L60094). The workshop manual says the lock nut needs to be torqued up to 450nm / 330ftlb and can use John Deere special tool KJD 10147. I cant find any information on this tool and struggling to find anything that will fit the nut. The nut is 112mm outside diameter and has 6 slots which engage with the special tool for tightening.

Does anyone know what generic tool I can buy that will fit this nut?

I'm in the UK if that matters!

Regards,

Julian

Email info@1001Parts.nl They say in their website they have it, price on request. Website is in Dutch so hard for me to get any more details.

Hi,

Thanks for the pointer to that website, I'll send an email and see what they say. My betting is it will cost an arm and a leg but will see.

If anyone does know of a generic axle nut tool that will fit this size of nut appreciate any help.

Regards,

Julian

Hi,

No luck from 1001Parts.nl - he said the tool is no longer available.

Any other pointers appreciated.

Maybe borrow/rent form a John Deere dealer.
