My mower deck is sagging in the front. What part could this be that perhaps needs replaced or repaired?
It hangs lower than in the back and I can't get an even mow.
Thanks to anyone who can help troubleshoot

Thanks to anyone who can help troubleshoot Do you have the manual that came with your Raven? There's instructions for leveling the deck in there. You should just need to adjust the connector holding the pin at the front of your deck. Put the deck down as low as it will go, and remove the pin from the front deck link. You just need to screw the end of the link further up the cable to raise the front of the deck. There is a lock nut at the end of the connector holding it in place, so you'll have to loosen that first. Then just turn the link a few turns to make the cable length shorter, tighten the lock nut back in place, and connect the link back to the deck. Raise the deck back up and check if it's level. I just did this few weeks ago, and had to repeat those steps a few times until it was fully level.

I bet the front rod broke off mine did.

Agree, either adjust it or the front connecting rod is broken. Not too much else can go wrong in the front.

I did it similarly the other week. I wasn't happy thinking how bad my lawn looked. I checked out my deck and I was way uneven. I hadn't check since initial uncrating. I was off side to side and front to back. It mows much more even now.

Either out of adjustment or broken front rod.
