50" Deck Mulch Plug? 1997 Craftsman 917.258914 EZ3?

[Fireman498]

Did they ever make a mulch plug for the 50" older Craftsman Deck. Sears replacement parts .com has one but it is for 2010 and later. I'm sure they would have changed deck designs and this will not fit mine.

Thank you.

I have found nothing for that mower deck. Not even a mention of a mulching kit.
