I have a John Deere 108 lawn tractor. Briggs Engine 8 HP. I replaced the mover deck blade bearing and upper pulley. (John Deere mounted these for me.) I attached to the mover deck and the mower will now only run in reverse. Neutral works fine. It ran great (transmission wise before). Any suggestions?

Thanks, Max

Hi,
Older Deeres have a neutral switch. Suggest that the shift lever has become a problem as it is out of adjustment.
Peace,
Clarke

Adjusted the shift lever and all seems to be back to normal. I have no idea how this got out of adjustment--doyou?

Hi,
Some things just come along to mystify us all. Nothing worse happens than to have a chain of problems with one leading to the next for successful completion of a repair.
