Unique Repair Made On Deere Riding Mower
Jeff Grube, Wisconsin Rapids, Wis.: “One unique repair I made recently was on my Deere riding mower. The brass sleeve around the driveshaft to the mower deck blades locked up.

This repair instantly quieted down the mower tremendously – it’s super quiet now and has been running great for 2 years.”
