3260 Mower Deck Spindles

[Dougget]

Hi,
I'm the new owner of a '74 Lo Boy 154. It came with the 3PH and 3260 mower.
I've been driving it around and learning how to operate it, pretty simple and I like it a lot.

While experimenting with the PTO lever and deck lift control I heard a clunk and realized that the blades were no longer spinning.
The left spindle fell out. I found the spindle with the blade still attached and the pulley was still on top of the deck.

Got me thinking, maybe it's time to clean up and refurbish the mower. Big question is where to get parts. Is there a kit of blades and spindles?
Is there a cross reference to newer parts that will work? This is not a restoration, I just want it to be functional and reliable.

Thank you,
Doug

Hamilton Bobs can help with parts. Add at the bottom of page. I have had two welded and that worked out with no issues.

Yup. Hamilton Bobs.

Bearings and seals in hand, auto parts store. Old blades in hand, auto parts store. Auto parts stores may not want to take the time to cross reference the parts.

As long as I am paying for shipping from HamiltonBobs, I usually purchase the blades from there too. They have the exact length blades that don't leave a trail of uncut grass between the blades in the corners.
