clueless 2,898 #1 Posted September 11, 2018 Will the 2 blade 37" deck work with the 520 with the forward swept axle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JAinVA 4,619 #2 Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) Deck mount on the 520 is the same as c through 300 400 series.There is a different mule drive for the 60 deck on the 520s.I just ran a 42' on the Ugly 2 520.I assume the 37 is made for the newer machines.If so as far as I can see it should work but the tires will track much wider than 37" Edited September 11, 2018 by JAinVA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,491 #3 Posted September 11, 2018 Some 37" decks use a 6-sided belt with all V-pulleys. Others use a 4-sided belt with some flat idlers like the larger decks. Both use a single belt. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clueless 2,898 #4 Posted September 12, 2018 I have a 37" deck on my 312-8 and I know how they attach. You need the smaller front wheels for it to work properly, what I'm wanting to know is with the forward swept axle and the larger wheel on the 520 will it work without interfering with the wheels?

JAinVA 4,619 #5 Posted September 12, 2018 The WHs that came with 6" front wheels have front spindles that add vertical height to keep the machine level.The 400/500 series have the same diameter tire size,with the 520s slightly wider cross section.If you attach a 37' to the 520 it should be level.
