</font><font color="blue" class="small">( I am one a many who has had the problems with the 60" wheels on the 60" mower deck breaking the 60" seal on their 60" rims. )</font>
<font color="red"> Perhaps because you haven't Reversed the Wheels on your PT!!
I'll bet that most of the owners having mower deck problems also have OEM positioned wheels on their PT!!
Actually, I have Reversed Wheels on my PT-425, and, although they are not 60", I have never had a problem with the wheels on the 60" mower deck that I don't have!! I have also not had any wheel problems with my MiniHoe, due, I am sure, to the aforementioned Reversed Wheels!! I thought I had a wheel problem with my Grapple Bucket, but I was wrong, it was just a tooth ache!!
PS: This reply should have been posted 4/1/5, but could not be, due to your not posting the problem until 4/8/5!! Next year please be more considerate, and post earlier!! Thanks!! </font>

Yeah... Can you believe it? In fact, the grass was a lot higher than I thought so if I had waited a few more days, I would have been in trouble /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
I only cut once last year at the end of the season when I bought the tractor (just because I wanted to try it out), so it was fun to get out and do some mindless work again this year.
The wheels seem to be working great! The old ones came off the rims after a few acres of cutting. I was looking all over for non-pneumatic replacements and figured I would give Terry a call just in case. He was very accommodating.
