Oh yeah I think those are play grade 5 bolts if I'm not mistaken grade 8 or higher usually does the trick. had that problem on a couple things of my on.

I saw somebody else buy one of those brush hogs for an excavator at an auction but made in China type of deals. The one they bought kept doing the same thing with the blades breaking off so they bought some shoulder bolts for a regular bush hog that would fit in there and some blades for it too (their blades both broke at the bolt hole). It seemed to run fine after that. Might work for you too.

Thanks for the recommendation. When was in tractor supply looking for the washers, I checked out the bushhog components to see if they had something that would fit. I did not see anything there, but I'll keep looking. Again, thanks!

i had to shorten blades on mine 1/4 inch. they get loos and get caotured on main nut. shorting the solved it

[@HammaDownEnterprises]

I’ll consider doing that. Thanks!
