That's what I have planned, but first I'm going to rig up something to raise the front of the 216 up high enough so I can work under the mower deck.
Figgered I use a come-along from a beam in the garage, down to the front of the 216, then crank away until the front of the tractor is about 24-30 inches in the air.
Hopefully that should give me enough room to remove the blades with my impact.
