John Deere LX176 38” Mower Deck Complete Rebuild & Mulching Kit Upgrade.

Hello, welcome back! Follow along as I rebuild this 38” mower deck off a John Deere LX series lawn and garden tractor. This 38” deck was used on many different John Deere models. My video shows complete tear down and reassembly, and shows how to install the optional John Deere mulching kit. All part numbers and torque specs you will need are contained in the video. Tools used: ~10mm, 13mm, and 15mm sockets / wrenches ~1-1/8” socket for spindle sheave nuts ~5/8” socket for blade retainer bolts ~long punch ~torque wrench ~arbor or hydraulic press (careful use of a hammer will also suffice) #johndeere #LX176 #LX172 #LX173 #LX178 #LX186 #LX188 #mower #gardentractor #mowerdeck #rebuild #repair #38”deck #mulchingkit #mulcher #tractor #willysjeep #gpw #diy
