"Manic-Mechanic" 1,266 #1 Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) I just disassembled the deck and it's obvious the spindle shafts are service parts are possibly from kit 107984,85,86. Shaft part 108610. I know the key in the pulley & spindle is 937222. My question is what deck would this assembly be from originally? The only other clue is the blades 107437, 107438 3/4" 14-1/2x1 12-1/2x2 I am fine with it, just would like to know where these come from? I have gone through almost all PDF's I can find! The Spindle Identification Guide shows these is Section G, but that's not telling me what Deck? New Style 36"?

Lee1977 7,206 #2 Posted February 18, 2022 36" side or rear discharge. 3/4" keyed spindle shafts are from the late 70's to around 1984. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 9,272 #3 Posted February 18, 2022 @ " manic mechanic " when rebuilding those spindles , replace the bearing grease with lucas x- tra heavy duty . po;yurea , hi temp anti sling grease . easy to pop off bearing side shields . pocket screwdriver . clean out and re grease. seals on the INSIDE of the spindle housing should be removed , for future greasing at fitting . no noise or bearing whining with that grease . only a recommendation to the rebuilding detail . pete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now I couldn't find any of these, must be hundreds of decks! At least now I know the parts are from an actual 36" deck! Unless there are more, different models that used this assembly? Lol Thank you, Cheers! Edited February 18, 2022 by "Manic-Mechanic" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
"Manic-Mechanic" 1,266 #6 Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) I started using brake caliper grease decades ago, never had a problem with bearing... Edited February 18, 2022 by "Manic-Mechanic" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,482 #7 Posted February 18, 2022 Notice there are only 5 decks in the list as the same deck model number was used for multiple years. The XR, XS and YR are for a different style of tractor leaving just one rear discharge and one side discharge model. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The XR, XS and YR are for a different style of tractor leaving just one rear discharge and one side discharge model. I have model 5-0621 9. (5-0720 for base diagram) The spindles were changed to 3/4" x 6" with a key 937222 placed 2.5" up. I have a newer spindle assembly apparently. So You sent me all those decks utilizing this assembly, which is excellent, but trying to get a diagram made up for parts, reference, etc I'm working on this but it's a task!
