I managed to get the 54C deck off my GT245 single-handedly, to replace the primary mower belt.

So now, I'm trying to figure if getting this deck back on is a one-man job, or not. How does one hoik this thing back into place? It's heavy as ^$!

It's possible, yes, but it's a whole lot easier with another person there to help hold the other side while you're removing it or mounting it back up.

If you're alone, you could get a prop of some sort to help.

Yeah, turned out to be me & the Mrs., and a 2x4 to lever it up.

They sure are a bear to reinstall, bluedogz. I have a Deck Leveling tool Patent Pending that will eliminate the blocks, 2x4's, tape measures and belly walks around the deck. Leaves your hands free for making adjustments.

Wish me luck
