Wanted: JD 345 Deck Hanger Assembly

[Tankguy]

Hi everyone, thank-you for allowing me to join your forum. I am wondering if anyone has available for sale, the assembly that attaches the JD 345 frame to the deck that they’d be willing to sell. I’ve heard this called a deck hanger, deck brace and a draft arm so not to cause confusion, I’ve included an image of the complete assembly I’m looking for.

Thank-you!

Welcome to TBN
Which part of the draft linkage do you need? You can likely get the individual parts from a Deere dealer, and pick out the part numbers from this link to JD parts and order online through a search.

Thank-you for your reply. I am in need of the whole assembly. I purchased a deck and tractor separately and am looking to mate the two but don’t have a deck hanger. I appreciate you sharing that link, however when I put all of the items in my cart they came to about $400. I think used will be the way to go!

Thank-you for that lead. There are quite a few on there. With the current USD to CAD conversion, as well as eBay shipping to me in Canada, the ones listed on eBay end up being quite pricey. Perhaps I will just end up having to wait it out and be patient for a better priced one to show itself on eBay.

That particular vendor has their phone number in the listing on one of their photos - give them a phone call, that's why it's there!
