Default Mower Deck Spindles

Hi all,

I have a Poulan riding mower with a 42" deck. I have used it for 6 or 7
seasons. One of the idler pulleys on the deck shelled out, and that got me
to wondering about the bearings and spindles that run the blades. The
spindle housings have no zerks on them. Should I tear the spindles down and
re-pack the bearings? What do people usually do for maintenance on these?

Thanks!
