JD GX95 uneven cut

Purchased a 94-96 GX95 about a month or so ago, did some cleanup and general maintenance work on it (new fuel lines, filters, wiring) and it runs very well. I've got the original manual which outlines how to "level" the mower deck, however even though the deck appears to be level I still notice "lines" between up/down paths that are easily 3/4"-1" taller on both flat and slight inclines in my lawn. It does not seem to be consistent in terms of what side of the mower deck it runs higher on that I can tell. I am not sure how old the blade itself is but could a bad/bent blade cause this behavior? Anything else that I am missing? Tires are all inflated to the same PSI, the anti-scalping wheels are set to the same height as well.

check the blade for sure, if that isnt bent, see if the main shaft on the pulley- they usually are hard to bend, but it could be the bearings or the spindle housing (its just an aluminum shell) might have cracked or something. Hope any of that helps
