- Kioti DK50SE HST w/FEL, Gravely 60" ZTR Mower. Stihl MS290 (selling), CS261, & FS190 + Echo CS400 & 2010 F-350 6.4 PSD snowplow truck
OK! Here's what I am thinking...
Can any of you JD Mower experts tell me if the LX266 can handle the larger decks? I have a 42C, there is a 48c and a 54c.
I think what I want to do is bite the bullet and BUY a new larger deck for mowing the YARD, and also take this deck and fix it as best as possible and use it for TRAIL mowing.
The deck is not that hard to remove (wish I'd known that sooner) and I will not leave it on all the time (my daughter drives the mower twice daily up to the pasture to feed the horses).
A larger deck will be a huge benefit as the actual "yard" is quite large and that will keep my from thinking about a ZTR or other $$$ mowers (although the 54c looks like it is over $800! just for the deck).
So, am I crazy? Will this work?
Thanks in advance,
David
