I purchased the deck lock-up kit with the tractor and yesterday I went out to check the tractor, i.e. clean the deck, grease, visual inspection. Well I looked and was wondering why the deck seemed to be crooked. Almost 1 inch on the deck height gauge. Looking at things everything is in-place and tight so I looked at the lock-up kit and low and behold the left rear was bent-in making it very close to the 3pt arm. I used my crow bar and straightened it back in place.
Now I use mine to set deck height so it carries weight all the time but it should be no different than having the deck locked-up all the time. I will get with my dealer on Monday and let them know. I just thought I would share this with the folks that have this kit to check it every now and then. Might have been just some bad steel as the otherside did not bend. Or it could be the two bolt design verse three.
