Part worked perfect
Correct part, etc. Would be nice when it replaces a previous version, recommend the new updated parts. For this piece, you need the updated nut fastener (older model is threaded different).
I use this site because they are one of the few with clear diagrams of the equipment I'm working on

Does this fit my product?Questions & Answers for Left Hand Drag Link
The serial number on my Husqvarna Lawn tractor is 954140108. Is the Part #597047802 the replacement part I need. The drag link pivot ball fell out of the drag link. Is this considered the left drag link since it is on the left side? Thanks

It was pretty simple. The dragon link arms only had 1 nut on either end but the trickiest part was to make sure you did not damage the rubber axle cover in the center of the wheel. I had to pry it from the back side to keep from damaging it then to put it back on I had to heated up so it would stretch and then snap back in to place, then form back to the washer. This is important to keep dirt dust and some water out of the grease around the axle.
