just a quick "looking for opinion" here. got a 109 with a 38 inch deck that needs some major patch work. saw this locally, $160, seller says it could use blast/paint but that's not an issue, also says all spindles are tight and extra blades. figure i'll offer 150. just want some opinions on it...- mconway

Rodney, you just drill/tap the size required, thread insert in and tap down locking tangs. as i said, they make an installation tool that sets depth, then flip over and use to set tabs but a pin punch works fine, you can use locktite but not required- mconway
