Possible bent spindle JD D105

[[email protected]]

Recently i hit a root in the front lawn. Bent a blade.
I replaced both blades. The lawn is getting a mowhawk
cut,a strip is uncut up the middle? Could this be a spindle?
I took the spindle off,but still cant tell. Can i take this to JD dealer to be checked

It sounds more like the deck where the spindle mounts is bent. Reinstall spindle with deck removed. Turn blades so that they meet in the middle. They should be even. If one blade is higher then its the deck. Take the entire deck to the dealer for repair. It can be very dangerous and costly if this is not done by a dealer.

Simple things first.
Are you sure the blades are on the right way round ?
Are they the right blades ?
they should miss each other by about 1/16"
