Hello I bought a craftsman T2200 and as soon as I drove it with the blades engaged it vibrated a lot. I replaced a spindle and it ran fine for about 20 minutes and started to vibrate as before. I am not sure if the spindle I bought was pre greased or not. any ideas ?

Check the spindle for a grease zerk, if it has one then grease it untill grease comes out top of spindle. Check for bent or excessivly worn blades and then check other spindle and pulleys for problems. And last but not least clean underside of deck. Buildup under deck can cause improper airflow and vibration.
