Description

Ever watch your planter bounce across rough ground and wonder if it’s staying level? The parallel linkage on your John Deere planter is what keeps each row unit riding smooth and even, maintaining consistent depth and spacing no matter what the field throws at you. When one of those upper parallel arms wears out or bends, you’ll know it—your seed placement gets sloppy and your stands suffer.

What You’re Getting

Standard 15-3/4 inch length that matches factory specifications
Heavy-duty construction built to handle the stress of field conditions
Direct replacement for worn or damaged original equipment
AgSmart quality that stands up to thousands of acres

Built for Real Farm Work

This arm fits a wide range of John Deere planters including MaxEmerge 2, Plus, Pro, XP, and XP Pro units, along with MaxEmerge 5 and Exact Emerge planters. You’ll also find it on 1530 and 1535 drills. These are the workhorses pulling across corn and soybean fields every spring, from small family operations to custom applicators covering thousands of acres.

Made to Last

Parallel arms take a beating—they’re constantly loaded in tension and compression as the planter follows ground contours. This replacement is built with the same heavy-duty materials as the original, designed to flex without breaking and maintain proper geometry season after season.

Installation Notes

This is a straightforward swap-out job that most folks can handle in the shop. You’ll need two arms per row unit, so order accordingly. Take a close look at your bushings while you’ve got things apart—worn bushings will eat up new arms fast.
