I have a johndeere lt160 with a 42c deck. I installed new spindels on the deck and know one blade is higher than the other with new blades. Is there a correct way to do this?

Hi,
Sounds as if something was hit. Usually the right side. The 42" decks are my least favorite because they exhibit the least rigidity because the sheetmetal has such a flat characteristic. Other decks with more bends are far more rigid. Is the right blade higher? What about when mowing and you go along with the left side of the deck next to where the right side just cut; is it even worse?
Peace,
Clarke
