Don't have one myself, but noticed something yesterday: My E20 deck hada crack in the steel on the top, right at the end of the discharge chutespot. Apparently the bolt that went through the blanking plate fell out,and the force back from the wheel flexed the deck till it cracked.

New bolt in and deck is ok, but I will need to wirebrush/grind/weld itthis summer. However how in the name of heck does a side discharge deckmaintain any sort of integrity? And should I put some angle-iron inthere to stiffen this spot?
