Spindle, axle. We're taking the same thing just different terminology. Was easy to replace just change bearings and seals in the hub and one bolt holds the axle in place. Now jacking it up while fully loaded and buried about a foot deep was less than fun. Thankfully it was the uphill side. Otherwise it would be a call to insurance.

As far as fan rpm the book has some decent charts. They are a good starting point. Depends if you're seeding cereals, or pulses/ oilseeds for how aggressive you can set your fan. Unplugging is no fun but bashing your $11/ lb canola seed isn't either. If you have hills then your fan needs more rpm to push the uphill side. If you're borderline for enough hyd flow watch if your fan speed drops while raising or lowering the drill. That is a recipe for plugging as well. If you're single shooting I'm assuming you're not putting down a pile of fert? That lets you have a lower fan speed. Of course if you're seeding at 7 mph probably ignore that. I could put down 300#/ac @6.5 mph with my 40' drill and not worry about plugging with the 7300. I have a 75' floater bar I mount to it and can apply 220#ac at 12 mph. It depends entirely on the drill setup and conditions for fan speed. On 49' you'll probably be fine with your agcostar with 130L/min.
