Hi,
I'm looking for a belt & parts diagram for a John Deere LX178 44" mower deck.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi,
I had forgotten to try to get a picture of the 44' Piranha deck. There are in fact two versions; early ones did not have serial numbers.
I did find a link on Deere:

But I am afraid it is the old style drawing that does not show routing. The deck is extremely rare.
Peace,
Clarke
PS I will continue to look.

Hi,
When I realized that I had neglected to find pictures of that deck (just so rare - only seen two) I have looked incessantly. There are two of those that are patented originally in 1993.
It has been redesigned a number of times and repatented. Deere owns patents on three different deck shells in regards to the bottom lip.
Just wanted to say I am still looking, and trying to assemble the parts of the engineering drawings into a representation.
Peace,
Clarke
