I may be mistaken but I believe that the front draft link which is also listed separately is included with the LVB25620 kit. This photo shows the entire kit:

This picture with the LVB25620 part number is very helpful, Thank You, I was wondering where that part number came into play.

I just bought a used 62D2 for my 2520 and it came with the mechanical lift parts. I installed the lift, the deck, and was done in 3 hours. I took my time, and looked thru google images to find pics of the mechanical lift that I could zoom in on to see how and where the brackets went. It was super simple, but I know the 2320 mount is different. I was nervous installing it, so I went super slow and cautious. If you had a book or install guide, you could be done in a hour or so if you wanted to hurry. I just wanted to make sure I had everything right! I spent a lot of the time looking at pics online, so it took extra time, but in the end it works perfect and I'm soooo glad I bought it!
I bought a 2013 62D2 with about 5-10 hours on it for $1,300 including ALL the mechanical lift!
My 2520 mows like crazy with it, but the JD blades are not the best. They have little lift, so they let stuff behind and the discharge plugs in really tall damp grass. I have Gator blades to try next!

I did spend a half day cleaning the deck, and doing maintenance on it. I used a wire wheel on the bottom of the deck and then Painted it with POR-15. The factory didn't paint the bottom of the 62D for whatever reason.....

Yes. It's still posted in the Swap Meet Forums under "For Sale" on GTT / Green Tractor Talk. I believe you need to be a member to see it though.

Thanks, I pm the guy this morning. I mistakenly bought a 62d2 version with all the attaching hardware. I hoping if I buy this kit I can see what I need to convert the deck over to a 62d1 version
