So, PT made a mistake when they built my mower, and the spare bolts for moving the blades that are supposed to be on the outside are on the inside of the stump jumper.

A friend swung by last night and was looking at the fact I have to tear the whole darn thing down to get the bolts reversed.

He said why don't I just use an easy out and push them into the stump jumper. Let them just lay there. It would make a bit of noise but nothing else (in his opinion). When it comes time to replace the bearings then I can pull the bolts out.

The reason to pull the bolts out is to make a bumper for the blades. They are getting stuck under the jumper as they are now flared.
