Frank
We too have had a number of gators(8)
This 620i has 440 hours and has given more trouble than all the others combined.
I average about 2500 hours on one before I trade
The 4x2s and even the 6X4 never gave a problem with bearings
This 4X4 has 2 roller bearings made together in 1 unit that fits in a housing.The brake rotor and wheel assembly have a hollow shaft that passes through this bearing.Then the splined axle shaft passes from the opposite side through the hollow and has a crown nut to tighten and hold everything in place.
Because there is no way to preload the bearings and because they are so close together it creates a fairly weak design
Surely John Deere has a better way to do this
