This aftermarket steering sector fits select John Deere riding mowers and is part of the steering system. It transfers movement from the steering shaft to the linkage so the front wheels turn properly when you steer. Built to match OEM This replacement steering sector is made to match the original part’s form, fit, and function. The mounting locations and sector gear shape are built for proper alignment with the existing steering components on compatible machines. Installation This is a bolt-up replacement for the existing steering sector and is intended to install without machine modifications. Basic hand tools are typically all that is needed; inspect the related steering bushings, linkage, and hardware while the assembly is apart. .product-description-v2 { font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 1.55; max-width: 720px; } .product-description-v2 > div { margin-bottom: 18px; } .product-description-v2 h3 { font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; color: #1d1d1d; margin: 0 0 8px; } .product-description-v2 p { margin: 0; font-size: 15px; } @media (max-width: 768px) { .product-description-v2 { font-size: 15px; } }
