Chief, I havent heard back from him since I called him Wednesday. I keep hoping someone will either come up with the shaft for the JD Model 397 Mower or have a complete Mower they would sell as this one has been great for almost 30 years. Another possibilty is to try and modify this one with different quills. Currently I have the shaft at a welders and he is trying to fix it, If that doesnt work out I may try and have one made at a machine shop. Thanks for responding back.

Many thanks for replying Chief,
I called and the shaft was the wrong one.I need a shaft for a JD model #397. They (Hutson's) are going to try and locate one or even the entire deck for me. It is in deed a small world as My last name is Hutson. I told him to treat me right as we may be cousins...:)

I want to buy a Model 397 JD Belly mower either in good condition or one for parts. I need the left shaft for the 397 and also a set of blades.This mower was built to fit a 820 JD from 1973 to 1978. JD tells me the shaft is no longer available. Any help would be greatly appreciated.<br>

PS: THANK YOU Chief for your reply and referral. So far it hasnt worked out but I may have met a cousin as we both have the same last name. :)
