need some advice a year ago the bracket between the transmissions broke and husler sent another one that the dealer replaced. Since then on 2 occasions the bolts came out of the top of the bracket causing it to shift and tear the transmission belt. Hustler will not warranty even though it has on ly 150 hours on it. The last time the bolt out the upper where the bolt mounts to broke. These were replaced by a hustler dealer. When I got mower back a week ago noticed that all bolts were torqued to around 25 ft-lbs, and could easily be torqued more. The bulletin with the new bracket says to torque to 30 lbs, and I was wondering if this is the proble. Could probably torque to 70-80 Lbs What do you think, I love the tractor, but in the last 3 months the fixes by the dealer have cost me $500.
Called hustler but they offer no help at all. Unfortunately this may be may last hustler, dealer keeps saying he hasn't seen this happen before.
