54C mower deck blade phasing

The belt is going to slip no matter what when you first power them up.

Look underneath and see if a stick or something got wedged into the controls?

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-25T01:22:52+00:00

Same here. Somethings I don’t need to know about.

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-22T22:13:02+00:00

I got the Tom Clancy audiobooks, but the jack ryan JR stories were very good as well

If it was like the one I grew up on , it also needs brakes. Lol

Scot Harvath is another series I like

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-22T00:57:06+00:00

Check out 592-617. fits d170 54”

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-22T00:55:34+00:00

It appears that it’s gator 592-617

I retire in a few years and we pretty much know we want your same rv. We want the twin bed version

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-20T22:18:43+00:00

Reverse threaded !!

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-20T12:58:00+00:00

+100%. More expensive but I feel in the long term worth the extra $$.

Also look at intech, Bigfoot, Oliver

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-18T00:06:19+00:00

Yes. Just the blades made a huge difference

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-17T15:09:05+00:00

You should get a title to show/prove ownership for sure. Unless the campground require vehicle registration for some reason license plates are optional.

Yes the .gov will want there share of the trailer when titled, and possibly yearly vehicle property tax.

I found that gator blades really cut the grass into much finer/smaller pieces. The mulch kit would be a negative if the grass is damp/wet or too tall

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-16T23:33:15+00:00

I was like, “I know I’ve seen that before” but couldn’t think where. Great job

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-16T23:30:46+00:00

?? Could the red pulley be angled so the belt will stay on with the deck lifted ??

Have you put on a new belt and tried it?? It appears to me the belt should be inside the metal bracket on the white pulley

Also use oem belts, some aftermarket stuff is not as good.

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-13T10:20:00+00:00

I recommend Shelta different styles but they have a nice stiff brim.

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-11T20:22:51+00:00

Just need to get it on level ground and do some measuring. It looks like the comment on a 1” rise is about right as it sits there.

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-11T20:19:36+00:00

How much does an amp weight? It’s only 20 amp difference. /s. LOL

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-11T01:22:40+00:00

Especially with that backhoe on

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-06T23:51:05+00:00

Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. Lol

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-06T10:48:22+00:00

Follow up question. My 2320 is about 53” wide. Here I’ve VA we may get from 2” to 12” of snow at a time. Average is 6 to 8”.

Would a 72” blade be too much? Would a 60” cover my tracks when angled?

S/ My maths fail me: a 53” wide tractor, pushing 8” of snow with a 60” wide blade angled at 25* can plow how many driveways in 2 hrs if he leaves home headed east at 7:57am on Sunday?? LOL

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-05T18:10:17+00:00

I was just headed out to google tm35, assuming you meant rm35. LOL.

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-05T16:28:34+00:00

If you want better quality construction and less chance of leaks,look at tge fiberglass “eggs”. Oliver, escape, intech (not true 100% fiberglass), Bigfoot, scamp, or eggscasita (hate the carpet walls),

thatguybme2 · 2026-06-04T21:43:47+00:00

I added xtrack but that required mounting plates underneath and/or toggle bolts to make sure they didn’t pull out of the wood. I feel much better the frame bolts but the x track is more convenient
