john deere 855 72" deck

If you notice, in the pic with the clevis, the clevis is probably only half way screwed on. So yours may be a bit longer yet, *shrugs* don't know. When I get home this evening I will get the model number.

I measured my back arms they are 24" just like yours. Unless there is a different model 72" deck for the 855-955's there has to be a different front bracket used for the 60 vs 72" decks. Whats your thoughts?

Sorry I got busy yesterday and worked late today. I will get that model number for you tomorrow.

I am wondering if the front bracket on the tractor is not the same as mine or if there are another set of mounting holes for it, to move it forwards. I am putting my deck back on Saturday, so I will take a look around.

Trailhunter, The front brackets are different for the 60 vs 72" decks. In the parts book Joecdeere put online I found a difference in the brackets. I found a 855 for sale online and could tell by the front mounting bracket it was different from mine. John Deere wants $140. for the bracket. If you could take a picture of yours with a tape measure by it. I can make a bracket if I had the spec's for one. Thanks Dale
