I want to take the blades off for sharpening. Is there a way to do this without buying an expensive jack or removing the deck?

I have a set of car ramps but haven't tried it yet. There's gotta be a way to do this.

Car ramps should work. Just something to make it easier to get under the mower. May need to find something to keep the blades from turning when loosening them. 2 by 4 or something to jam the blade, if you can't hold it for removal.

Car ramps get in the way.
The deck takes less then 2 mins to remove.
I just take my deck off saves so much time and don't have to lay on the ground.

I have used a come along from a rafter or tree.

When I have the deck off I spray some lube on all moving parts on the deck and mower.
