My new (to me) 3720 with cab,and 40 hours on the clock, went to the local dealer for a new 6ft. mower to be installed,(2 weeks ago), they say that they can't figure out how to install one of the brackets underneath because it hits the hydraulic fluid supply tube underneath??, they are trying to figure it out but it's taking a long time. Has anyone run into this same problem? thanks

yes. the cab machine requires differnet bracket kit from the open station model. The manual that comes with the mower deck states this clearly. I had to reinstall my deck and have the dealer order the parts stated in the manual. Amazes me how the dealers are so incompetent when it comes to this stuff. There is a large main lift cylinder bracket and a mower deck lock that is to be ordered along with the mower deck when installing on a cab machine. If you don't have the manual or the dealer doesn't, ill take a picture of the parts with part numbers stated in the manual
update: the dealer says they have the right bracket and the problem is the hydraulic return tube is not in the correct location and John Deere is sending a new tube to correct the problem?? Time will tell! or should I say, too much time will tell! thanks for the response.
