STIHL WB01 760 2000 OEM Arbor / Spindle Assembly for 42" Deck
The STIHL WB01 760 2000 Arbor / Spindle Assembly is a genuine OEM STIHL replacement mower deck arbor assembly, also commonly referred to as a spindle assembly. This part is listed as ARBOR ASSEMBLY 42, FAB and is used on the STIHL RZ 142.0 in the 42" Mower Deck - Housing, Arbor & Blade section.
The arbor / spindle assembly supports the mower blade and allows it to rotate smoothly during mowing. A worn, loose, damaged, or noisy spindle assembly can cause vibration, blade wobble, poor cut quality, bearing noise, and premature wear to belts, blades, pulleys, and deck components.
Always verify your full STIHL mower model, deck size, original arbor or spindle part number, blade position, mounting style, pulley setup, and parts diagram before ordering. Arbor and spindle assembly fitment can vary by mower model, deck size, and deck configuration.
