The gear box lower seal was leaking on my 60" mower deck. I took it apart installed the new seal and put everything back together. Now this is the problem [not sure if it was like this before] I can move the blade in and out about 1/4" now. The shaft moves up and down inside the gear box as well. What I did was take it apart and the lower bearing inside the center pulley holder moves up and down inside the aluminum housing. I my housing worn out this much. Looking at parts diagram there is a snap ring just above the seal that is supposed to hold the lower bearing inside the housing. What I'am wondering is why can I move the bearing up into the housing this far.The blade boss is supposed to push against the bearing supposedly keep the shaft from moving up and down. What do you suppose is wrong with mine.
