Mower Deck Bushing Replacement

[BamafaninKY]

New to the forum, and have a question on replacing the deck mounting bushing. Anyone have a easy fix/replacement of those bushings? I have replaced once, think I made it harder than it should have been. I have Grasshopper 727K2, with a 3461 (61") front mount deck. Thanks for any suggestions.

I generally try to make my own bushings on Most things...
It is usually easy to replace bushings So I typically will use a softer bushing than the pin.... :smile:KennyV

Items 46 & 47, after removing hardware use a large prybar to remove bushings. Safety first, wear safety glasses.
