Anyone ever seen a mower deck like this?

Looks to be a 990885 42" deck with the adjustors removed and bolted solid, and homemade supports on the end of the rollers.

The roller supports are not a bad idea, I may even copy that. More than once I have caught and bent the roller bar on roots and other items trying to trim too close with the tractor. The end of the rollers do kind of stick out in the open just waiting to grab something.

Agreed, I have a propensity to hook the right hand roller on inside turns. I hooked mine on the jungle gym Friday afternoon. Luckily I have not bent the shaft but it always makes a heck of a jolt on the mower.

That machine is interesting all around! I wonder what happened to the Landlord the seat came off of?
