Sorry for the misnomer. I only called them Frankenstein bolts because they look like the bolts on Frankenstein's neck. I didn't know there were actual Frankenstein bolts. Anyway, thanks for the replies. Come to find out it's a 38" deck. The prev owner had installed the mower's frame incorrectly and it wasn't settling back into position the way it was supposed to. When I fixed that, I found that the belt that was on it was actually the correct one and was able to adjust the tension enough (without overtightening) to bring the pulleys out past the rod they were rubbing against.
