Seed Boot Bushing Kit

As acres accumulate on John Deere drills and air-seeders, the holes which mount the seed boots to the opener arm become egg shaped. Together with wear in the boot holes and bolt, this results in significant up/down travel of the seed boot. This allows the seed boot to lift, where it can spray seeds out onto the soil surface (especially in no-till fields).

Needham Ag Seed Boot Bushings are manufactured from a high grade, heat treated stainless steel material to provide excellent durability characteristics and long life, plus our bushing kit won’t corrode and seize in place like some of our competitors. Our kit also allows growers to move the boot to the lower hole, such as what’s often required when seeding a lot of small seeds.
