craftsman riding lawnmower will not move?

After taking off and on rear tire, craftsman riding lawnmower will not move forward or reverse at all. What could be wrong?
It was moving great before flat tire and we had to take tire off to have fixed.

My RanchKing riding lawnmower runs but will not move. Looks like there is a spring loose near shift mechanism but cannot see where to attach.

did you make sure the slotted key went back in axle for drive wheel .....
when taking tire or rim off you disengaged axle from trans gears ....>>>>???????
