HeadExam 1,783 #1 Posted August 14, 2016 The middle spindle bearing were shot (an understatement), the others are probably worn badly as well. I got thee center spindle out and apart ready to install the new bearings. This is my fourth deck, the Bolens 1256 1476, and Wheel Horse D160 decks are done, I'll be making one good Allis deck out of the other two parts decks I have as well. That should give me ten running tractors with decks. and I have two more coming up in the queue to get decks under them, The Homelite T16H is running and has a good deck under her, I just need to finish the rear lift rod. The CASE 224 needs reassembled and the deck is already completely restored 3 wurzel, Triumph66 and slf-uk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeadExam 1,783 #2 Posted August 15, 2016 I don't think bearings are supposed to look like this and in my manual I could not find grass on the parts diagram 2 wurzel and Cub Cadet reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
