I have 44 inch deck on 2009 Regent model 2690574. Had the roller assembly off to work on deck. I can't get the deck back to level. I have the concentric bolt to max lift on left. But left is still 6mm lower than right. Any tips? Could worn rollers cause this? Thanks in advance!

Sure can.
Take all of the mountings off and you will find all the holed flogged oval.
Before you start, shake hands with your best friend in these jobs,,,,,,, your digital camera.
Note which side of lugs the different hangers are on on many decks it does make a difference.

IMG_1312.jpgHaha yep on the camera. Thanks Bert! I will check hangers tomorrow. It feels like it could be oval the way it's not smooth cranking up and down. Here is a pic on the adjustable side. How much play should there be on the slide and shoulder bolt. I can wiggle it about about 3/8s. Bolt below the big eccentric.

I got it leveled out. Left side hanger was installed with the bump stop under instead of over the hanger bracket. The hangers were not worn. Oiled and greased everything now sits flat as a pancake :cool:
