MTD DECK VIBEBRATION?

What to do the yard machine 18Hp 42 deck shakes, and vibebrates bad. I changed the blades to new ones and still does the same. The deck belt looks worn would this cause the problem?

Replace the belt. Worn spots on the belt can cause a really bad vibration. Check the pulley's for damage and check your spindles for play. The bearings could be gone in one of them.
