Strange, my mower did not make any noise tonight.Maybe I ran over something like a branch or something yesterday..I had the deck replaced last year by Sears it was still under warranty so it was free otherwise the charges would have been over $1200.This year I bought replacement parts on Amazon.The deck was in ok condition so I did not replace it.I also put heavy duty rings on the top and underneath the deck to keep the vibration from tearing the deck apart like a worn out spindle did last year.I only have 60 hours on this mower.

Well after I posted on here last night I mowed some and after about an hour the loud clanging metal to metal sound started when I engaged the deck.idling with the deck up the sound stopped.You think maybe it's the idler/v belt pulley?I checked the blades non seemed bent.Like I said before a replaced the 3 spindles 3 blades and the V-belt.This mower deck has been a problem for 2 seasons.I purchased it in 2013 brand new from Sears.They made these decks cheaply.The rest of this mower is great.
