Product Description

The BRIGGS STRATTON 82-131 is a spindle assembly designed as a direct replacement for MTD part 918-06991. The spindle assembly is a core cutting-deck component that holds and drives the mower blade. It mounts to the deck housing and transmits rotational force from the belt-and-pulley system down to the blade.

It is a practical replacement for residential and light commercial mowing decks that require restoration of proper blade engagement and cutting performance. Service shops handling MTD-platform equipment will find this part useful for keeping machines in operational condition across seasonal maintenance cycles.
