    Question:
    I have a model YTH23V42 riding mower, I was cutting my neighbors grass the other day and hit some large rocks, it broke one end of the left blade and bent the other end up about 80 degrees. I changed the blades and now the left side cuts about 1/2 to 3/4 inch lower on the middle of the deck than the right blade. The shaft is not bent, does that mean I probably "warped" the deck and if so can it be fixed and how? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Larry Holly

      Sounds either bent the spindle housing mounting ears of the deck or you broken the spindle housing. Also double check the mounting of the blade as I have seen a lot that where not fully mounted on the star but instead just sitting on top of the star.
