    Does the original axle bolt fit through the new axle sleeves?

    Thank you so much for this video! Could you make a video on how to adjust the deck height on the Husqvarna Z54F?
    I have the same model as you, and I can’t seem to adjust it for anything.
    On the highest setting (6) the front is 2.5” off the ground, and the back is 3.5”. I’m fine with the pitch, but it just seems so close to the ground, even just 1/2” higher would be nice.

      sure. I just did this. basically there’s two bolts at the front that adjust the front tilt. You need to make sure your air pressure is correct and that you’re on level ground to start. The wheel bushings being worn out actually lower the front of the mower also.

      @@wecanfixit7308 Thank you so much for this.
      I ordered the same bushings kit you used. So I’m hoping to install them tomorrow or early next week.
      I adjusted those two bolts on the front end of the mower (beneath the gray plastic foot rest). They adjusted that front bar that hooks into the deck. Tightening them brought the deck too far forward so that I couldn’t get the front deck lift arms over the frame pins.
      I also believe the rear deck lift arm bolts are as tight as they can be.
      So I guess it must be a leveling issue with the tires. 🤷🏼‍♀️
      After I put the new bushings on, I’ll measure everything and figure out how to adjust from there.
      Thank you so much, I really can’t tell you how helpful this video was!

      @@Aveeguides I’ll take another look at the leveling. My axles had eaten halfway through the bolts, so I know the front was at least a half/ three quarters of an inch lower than it should have been

    You cannot use that old worn out axle rod. Get a new one and also get the right tools for working on things.

      Thanks for watching! The kit came with the axle sleeves (in stainless) but I didn't know the original bolt was worn through until I got it apart. Replacing it is on the list, but would be a boring video. Not everyone has a bearing press, so I had to use what was available.

      Pay attention he did put a new axle rod in.
