FYI I have no idea the exact model of the mower deck in the video, it came from the Mower Mike junk yard lol. All I know is that it was one off a crappy old Cub Cadet.

I like this i have a ltx 1050 that is not rusted out like that,but im not for sure its not bent somewhere.I have a full rebuild kit coming monday and im going to look it over. I might have to do some massaging.
Good to know that there is a bolt on solution now that I just finished welding washers over the hole 10 minutes ago.
Haha well that is always a good free option.
I would add a couple washers to each Bolt to spread out the contact width and if it reduces the bolt length too much get a slightly longer bolt or cut it to size. I just bought a New XT1 and may put these on by next year.
Great idea!
Oh my goodness, I wanted to let you know what kind of mower we went with.....and it's a Cub Cadet! Oh well, I suppose they all have their problems, yes? Honestly we went with it because it was discounted $400, and due to a few steep places we were leery of the zero turn. Anyway, if it develops this problem I know the fix thanks to you!! I almost want to go ahead and order this part.😅 Thanks so much!! I love your channel, you get right down to bidness. lol
Just keep the deck clean and never put the mower away wet. It is better to blow off dirt and dust with a leaf blower than it is to hose the tractor down. With reasonable care, it should last for years.
If it is new you shouldn’t have any issues for a long time. You just may skip my next video though lol.
@@MowerMike Matter of fact, as a proactive measure I intend to watch all your videos and especially the Cub Cadet ones!! 🤣
I thought I was going to have to hire a welder to fix it , great job
Glad it helped
THANKS AGAIN MIKE....my spindles were doing the same thing,
Glad to help
Snyder tx here. New sub!
Didn’t know y’all even had internet out in Snyder lol. Welcome aboard.
@@MowerMike internet? What’s that?
Exactly what I need! How did you find the correct replacement ring part number? I have a 2006 Cub Cadet GT-2544 but am unable the correct ring.
You will have to ask Google that one, good luck
are the cadet XT1 46” spindles the same dimensions? was thinking about purchasing those rings as preventative destruction Measure rater than wait util the deck is trashed to worry about it.
Yep I think they would be the same, not a bad idea to re enforce
@@MowerMike we sure do appreciate That info. thank you👍
I just got a two ring kit for my L111 John Deere 42" deck. The rings came with paper gauges, like little framing squares. What are these for?
No idea
I wonder if anyone would consider it worthwhile to install these plates before there is any bolt hole tear out.
I would if you have the deck off already
South Tx here, I wish I had that deck I gotta patch mine I think I would just replace what you cut out and run it :) any good places selling used decks??
Hmmm I would say a scrap yard or Facebook. Or just find that guy local who has a yard full of broke mowers.
So I didn't have to laser cut stainless steel plates? Just kidding!
