Changing Jim Dandy Front Wheels

Friend of mine just got a 74 JD. He wants to put taller wheels on the front. Will Power King hubs fit the JD spindles or does he need to change the spindles too?

They both share the same part number.The hubs were used for the mower deck hubs also but were not welded on both sides.
I believe the dandy spindles are longer, much like those on a 24XX. It might put the front higher then he wants if that's the case.

I should have said will the PK hubs fit on the JD shaft, the part where the bearings ride. not the spindle. Or will PK shafts and hubs fit the JD spindle.
I doubt it. The economy hubs are just normal trailer hubs. I would just go to TSC and buy some hubs. If they don't fit bring them back
I just found my PK manual. The shafts, brgs. and, seals are the same part # between the JD and PK. So it looks like they will work.:fing32:
