I found your video , and watched it 3 times. I did exactly as you said using a 30 year old wrench. With the help of a metal cheater bar, I was able to remove the nuts just as you showed. New ones are on tight, no vibrations and everything sounds fine. Thank You for taking the time to so every single thing to do.

Put my new Gator blades on with my impact wrench, but didn't feel comfortable not knowing if they were torqued down at 50 lbs. foot per John Deere manual for my Z335M zero turn mower. Was looking for another way to keep the blades from spinning when I used my torque wrench, as I did not have a spare 2x4 lying in garage. I searched KZread for ideas, and came upon your genius of an idea. I had just found a C-clamp in my toolbox the week before. It worked like a charm and I was able to finally get my yard cut with the new blades. THANK-YOU FLIP!!!

Thanks for the video. The homemade ramps and C clamp are great ideas. The major things I do differently is 1) to have a jack stand under the mower for safety reasons. And 2) clean the mower deck while the old blades are off and before the new ones are installed. It makes cleaning the deck easier and safer. The blades are not in the way and there is no worry about being cut by the blades. Always wear eye protection and gloves. PEACE.

I'm sorry to hear this. Check out my video on my Ego blades. They were really stuck on with Loc Tite. I go over a couple ways to get the bolt out. A long breaker bar from Harbor Freight and even a pipe on the end would do wonders. You can also spray it with some PB Blaster to help loosen it and then some anti-seize once you get it off so it won't get stuck again. Let me know if that works. Here is my video on the Ego blades: kzread.info/dash/bejne/f4mbmJOSm8aXYaQ.html@@debmcgee9016
You helped me with a simple question I had concerning this matter, AND surprised me with an idea I much needed. I am a very mechanical guy and changing the blades seemed very straight forward, but I didn't know if the threads were left or right hand. (I reflect back to the midsize Dodges of the mid sixties). You cleared that up. What surprised me was your "C" clamp idea! Great job young man, and wonderfully clear auditory! Thank you immensely!

Great video, right to the point! One thing I find when it comes to cleaning the grass off the bottom of the deck, is after you scrape all the grass off, spray the underside of the deck with some WD40, it will make it easier to remove the grass and keep it cleaner and help with rusting from the wet grass, think of it like spraying cooking spray on a frying pan to help prevent sticking, I have been doing it for years and it works like a charm:) One again thanks for making this excellent video.

Man, one of blade nuts was really stuck hard. The ends of the blades were rather torn up as well and the blade kept slipping past the clamp. I finally clamped a small piece of 2x4 INSIDE as well as outside the cover and used a short breaker pipe over the ratchet handle AND a longer breaker rod inside the pipe. It finally broke loose. I ended up mowing most of the back yard with a large flashlight, lol! It got dark fighting the nut off. I also made something sort of like your lift. I always save wood pieces. It worked great! I did not have to bolt the two parts together. I used a large block in front of both of the stand parts. I am real surprised I did not knock the mower off the lift! Thanks! You are awesome!

Thank you! Good luck with the build.
Thanks for the easy to understand and follow directions. I think I damaged something on my riding mower when I drove over a metal cover in my yard. It helps me make repairs when I can view the steps I will need to take step by step with photos. My husband passed away a year ago and I am learning how to repair things around the house. Thanks again:) Teresa

This was a great video. Very informative with step by step instructions. Can't wait to try it out on my Craftsman riding mower.
