RCK54 mower deck won\'t fit on B7500?
I bought a RCK54-75B mower deck for my B7500 tractor. The mower deck's right hand gauge wheel hits the rear tire no matter what hub arrangement or axle pin hole I use.
The rear tires are 12.5 x 15" turfs. The local dealer came out and turned the hubs in, and out, and tried all the axle pin holes with no success. I am tempted to cut the gauge wheel bracket off the deck and re-weld it outboard another inch or so. An inch would be enough space.
Has anyone dealt with this? Maybe the narrow 54" deck shouldn't be on this tractor?
