I put the bottom spindle seal in backwards so that if it is over greased it does not blw the seal. Dealer told me to do that.

Yep, one of them needs to be in backwards to allow the old grease to be pushed out. This had both facing in. :bash2:

Some people should not be allowed to use tools. :biggrin2:

Sharpened the blades put them back on and couldn't turn the spindle, seals were in upside down, idler pulley seized up solid and on and on and on. It runs, it cuts grass. I did what I told him I would do. Big thanks to all of you that have helped in this project. Give yourselves a pat on the back.
Glad you got it going Sam! Feels good to help someone out.

Forgot to post the pic of the wire the mice had eaten so here it is.
