I have a residential zero turn Husqvarna Z5426 riding mower.
I have tried to find how to remove the mower deck but can only find RZ5426 deck that has a front bracket.
This mower has arms with ball joints that I took apart to release the deck because couldn't get to bent up cotterkeys.
There is no front bracket, just a solid rod with welded studs instead of bolts so matched up welded plates refused to slide either was to be able to remove. I ended up grabbing a crowbar and hammer and wedge and was able to get it apart but have no idea how I'm going to get back together. Does the body need taken apart to remove the floor from the frame so the solid rod can be maneuvered?
