You don't need to remove the gearbox to install a mower deck. Just leave it on. Yes, with it removed the bolts will be too long.
This isn't difficult.....
Should be able to remove a tiller in about 15 min if it's hot and your slow. Takes about 20 to put the subframe on and attach the deck. It may take an hour total if you have trouble getting up and down. (Not poking fun at anyone.) I can switch in 15 min total or less, but I made my tiller a quick mount. It cut about 5 min off install time. But, the gearbox comes off with the tiller. Just taking the tiller off might take me 3 to 4 min.
