My X590 is now going on its 3rd year. When purchased, I also bought the JD accessory snow plow kit.

Starting at year two and continuing now at year three my mower deck has dropped due to the support bolts wearing through the frame brackets. Getting new bolts does no good since the originals wore through the frame supports. I am reduced to putting washers periodically on the bolts to keep them from falling through. This is obviously a design flaw with the frame support and I am sure that I am not the first one to complain about it.

You don't have to be an engineer to know that this design was never going to work and that the weight of the plow or deck was going to cause it to wear through the supports. This was my 3rd John Deere & the only one that had this type of support hanger. The others never gave me any problem. After spending $8000.00 dollars on this purchase, I would have expected better quality.

This will be my last purchase of a John Deere product. The quality is no longer there and I worked too hard for my money.

User's recommendation: An X590 with this style mower support would be a serious mistake to purchase. Its design will most definitely fail.

Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution.
