I have a Yardworks model13A7765G515,60-1852-2. The deck is rusted out,I tryed to add a patch but it's to far gone. I have a couple Craftsmen decks and I'm thinking of trying to use a Craftsman deck for a yardworks(MTD) mower can it be done? or can any thing else work,I thought about cutting the brackets off the Craftsmen,and weld them onto the MTD deck? Any help would be appreciated,

Anything can be made to work, just depends on how much you want to do, and your skill level.

I understand, but I was asking if anyone has done this before,and if there are other deck's that might work better than a Craftsman deck.

At lot will depend on who made the Craftsman. Some were made by MTD, others by AYP (Husqvarna) If both are MTD your chances for success are pretty good. If you are trying to put an AYP deck on a MTD, not so good.

How will I know or how can I find who made the deck?,will it say made in Canada,or the USA. or just by comparison,in shape.

First 3 numbers of the model number is 917 then it is Husqvarna.
