Customers tell me their original zinc plated stud rusts to the adjustment yoke over time. They say it is especially noticeable when an old belt is replaced and the mule tension needs to be adjusted all the way out to install the new belt. They say many times they tear the adjustment knob off trying to force the stud to the other end of its thread. My solution to this problem is a 304 Stainless Steel adjustment stud. The assembly consists of a new John Deere mule drive knob, new 304 Stainless Steel adjustment stud, and new jam nut.
