FAQs
Is this an original manufacturer part?
Yes, this is a genuine GGP (Global Garden Products) steering column bush.
Will this fit my 2012 Estate mower?
Yes, it is designed for Estate models produced between 2009 and 2016; however, please verify your specific serial number against the 325038008/0 part reference.
How often should I replace this bush?
There is no set interval; replace it whenever you notice excessive movement or 'play' in the steering wheel.
Do I need special tools to install this?
You will need basic hand tools such as a socket set and potentially a steering wheel puller, depending on how tightly your current wheel is seated.
Can I use this on a non-Castelgarden mower?
No, this part is specifically engineered for Castelgarden, Mountfield, and Stiga steering systems.
Troubleshooting
Steering still feels loose after installation
Check the steering gear sector and pinion for worn teeth, as the bush is only one part of the steering assembly.
Difficulty pressing the new bush into the housing
Ensure the housing is free of debris or rust flakes and use a light coating of grease to assist with the installation process.
