What size bolt for rear rockshaft?

Postby leerenovations » Tue Feb 03, 2015 11:03 pm

I just bought a Bushog 412 mower and it came with the front and rear manual rockshafts. But of rthe life of me, I cant remember what size bolts you use to mount the rear rockshaft. Can anyone please tell me what size to buy?

1/2-13 x 1 1/4". If I remember correctly, I used 1". The 1 1/4 was not readily available locally

I had the manual for the rockshafts open and looked over the size several times without realizing it. Guess it helps if you put your glasses on.

Nah. It just confuses you even more if you wear bifocals.

"Which one of these four images am I supposed to pay attention to?"
Though trillions and trillions of eyes have been watching the skies for as long as human memory exists, no gods nor angels have been seen or documented outside of religion. The number of spaceships being sighted however has become much more prevalent.
