Install with no instructions
Major endeavor, if you haven't done this before. I am somewhat mechanically inclined, and this took all afternoon to do with no instructions. Not much fun, but I did get it done. The review might get more stars when I actually mow the yard with it. It works, but I only tried it for a little bit, I needed a rest.

Needs some skill
Pressure wash mower first, easier to find and remove screws. This does require some skill but parts fit perfectly and arrived in a few days. Instructions would have been nice.

Difficult
It was very labor intensive to install this part. My mower is only 5 years old but no instructions came with the part for instillation. Then when I called to get instructions I was sent a video on how to replace the part in a completely different style. My mower is a rear wheel self propelled and the video was for a front wheel model. Not all that similar of a replacement at all. I got it done, but my mechanic brother and carpenter/handy man father had to come and help for 2 hours. Still better than spending $500 on a new mower but not happy with the lack of instructions.
