Deck rollers.

Recommended Posts

  The nylon bearings in the three rollers on my 42" RD are past their sell by date. Also the spindles are worn. One very badly. Today I replaced them with rollers and spindles salvaged of a scrap SD. The deck was bent. 

  Now the rollers are different diameters. 2-1/2" on the RD and 2-3/4" on the SD. I very much doubt that it should make much difference. Unless someone knows otherwise. May have to make adjustments to the deck height of course.

  One future day I may make some new nylon bearings for the 2-1/2 rollers.

Those rollers are anti scalping devices.  Different sizes side to side should not affect normal mowing.
