Need help with my 210-5 .. Can't remember if blade bolts are reversed

[OldNoob]

Hi all a couple years ago i put new blades on my 210 with an impact.. but i cant remember if they were reverse threaded. I was trying to change the blades the other day with a wrench on the ground and i could not get the bolts to budge ether way.. guess i'm going to have to jack it up and get the impact back on it.. but before i try.. can anyone tell me if they are reverse threaded?
On a side note,,,, i only get a few mows out of the tensioner spring on the 38" deck before it wears through on the inside hook.. any suggestions on that?
Thanks in advance.

Right hand discharge will have right handed thread bolts. So righty tighty, lefty loosey.

On the spring thing, that's not many mows out of a spring. Sounds more like the hook is rubbing on something than the spring wearing out on its own. Take a good look at the hook and see where it's worn. If it's wearing on one side, I'd look at what's next to that spot.

Is the new spring the same length as the old one?

Only seen this on other decks, never had a 38" one apart.
