Looks like it should be good for many more years, Dave. It is actually a J46 deck, the H46 has a rounded discharge chute if you take a look at the parts manual.

Looks almost to good to use, Dave. I'll run my L46 over and you can start on it in your spare time.

J46 deck on the 222 level and ready to cut . Waiting on new belt . Can't run original size due to the deck being much taller without cutting at 2" Have to go to a shorter belt to swing the tensioner pulleys up and out of the way more razing the height the belt comes off the bottom of the pulley so as not to rub the top of the deck when cutting at 2.5 -3" Belt should be in on Monday . Then test drive . That is a lot of deck under there . Not much room under there left to lift up . It say that you can run this deck on the 200 series , but it doe not say is that I think it should have some sort of lift kit to raise the tractor a bit .
Anyone run one of the 46" decks on 200 series ??

I was planning on running a 46" deck on the 226 next summer. This years winter project will be the 226.
