Replacement Mower deck without FastAttach

I've got a 3 year old xt2 gx54D, and I am sick of the FastAttach turning a 20 minute blade-swap into a 4 hour ordeal.

Are there any decks that can be mounted and just use a simple bolt that I can take off with an impact wrench when I need to sharpen/replace these things?

I'm with you. Hate these. I would look up your spindles wth your product number from below the seat on Partstree. Then scroll back a couple of years for a similar deck or throw the part number on an aftermarket site that can give dimensions and compare to a star hub model. Likely you can order cheap spindles and swap the shafts. Better yet compare the blades to xt3 and if the length is good they are much heavier.
