A lot of times they have slot cuts on stuff like that.

The slots are cut like that. No wear. It's to allow the deck to float up an inch or two.

Google up the parts list schematic for your mower. That should show you the proper assy positions for the linkage.

There's 3 or 4 YouTubes on Hustler 42" deck removal and reattachment, so I suspect you're not the first ot have an issue. Check them out.
