38 Deck Weldment 532192556

1. Lowered deck to ground, removed all clinch pins from support rods, removed clutch/brake cable, removed mower belt from engine, and pulled mower deck out from under tractor.
2. Took several photos of the top of the deck to verify location of springs, clutch/brake rods, clutch pulleys, etc. Also changed out movement belt because it is best time with mower deck removed.
3. Installed new spindles, new blades, bearings, and pulleys. Installed new mower belt on deck. (Reused original bolts and fasteners as none came with new deck). Installed old springs.
4. Pulled deck back under tractor, reconnected rod linkages and pinned them off. Installed mower belt to engine pulley. Ready to mow!
Note: I cleaned and painted the springs and deck parts before reinstalling them. The deck only had a thin coat of production paint so I topcoated with Rustoleum.
