Finally finished the rework on my 42" deck:
Disassembled, sandblasted, primer, painted.
The 104 is a working tractor not a restore so I'm sticking to the PO's rattle-can paint scheme - the deck is "Hardware Store White" straight out the can
New cast iron nose and rebuilt center spindle thanks to Mark Hellrung of IH Cub Cadet Parts ( Thank you Mark for fitting those into an already tight schedule!!) New deck belt from the local JD dealer.
Had to do a fair amount of weld rebuilding of various worn parts on the mule drive and QA hitch.
It's all back together and hanging under the 104 - everything is working well but I can't even pretend to get out and mow . . . we've had 37 days of rain out of the last 40 and with the slope I live on, there's no way I'm going to just go and sling mud all over the place :angry:
