Old Snapper RER 25 Deck Spindle. Cannot find a replacement.

I Bought this old snapper 6hp RER for $50. These have sentimental value to me since we had them as kids at my Mom and Dads. I plan on Restifying and using it..


After a trip to the car wash, I soaked the carb overnight and got it running great. I fired it up to mulch up the leaves and Unfortunately the deck spindle seems to be shot. I blade seems to be fairly newish and doesn't look bent. Seems to run good inside with the deck.

I cannot seem to find a Part# for the spindle. All the parts fiche's shows a silhouetted spindle and do not give a part# for it or any internal parts for it.


It is Snapper model 25065 . I'm not sure how to tell the series model of these yet. I'm just getting back into them after 30 years.
Any Ideas?

For what it's worth, if you look at the MM size of the bearings, you can purchase common bearings readily available.

I found out the bearings for my JD 60" deck were a common model number 6205, you can buy them open sided which is what is used by JD, sealed one side or sealed both sides.

It's nice when they use readily available parts and put them in their box, bag and charge double.
