    Super Bronco - work load

    The Troy Bilt :-) It was my original question in this post I have 10 acres. The Mitsubishi 24hp 4wd tractor takes care of the pastures, front and back ... but that leaves the front yard, the dog yard, the side yard, and both sides of the long driveway. How much can the Troy Bilt do, and how...

They all rotate free and easy This mower was purchased used (older couple; he wasn't allowed to mow any more) and the only issues I've had are the frikking belts and the gas cap falling apart. We have an...

    Super Bronco 42" Blades Engaged

    Thank you!! I played with the deck today and low, it belt is slack, but it tightens as you lift. I keep reading that this mower HATES anything but an MTD, so that is what it will get. I need the machinery to work. Having the mower AND the tractor down at the same time is difficult. Off to...

    Super Bronco 42" Blades Engaged

    Lowe's sold me a 109" Sunbelt (for a 46" deck ... mine is 42") ... which I questioned, but the mower came from them originally The Super Bronco is a model 6605 (60TG in many of the searches) Yes. It is routed and in all the proper guides. That much I can do correctly :-)

    Super Bronco 42" Blades Engaged

    Even with the picture on my phone of the model and serial #'s and the old belt in hand ... I was sold the wrong belt three times ... and finding the right one in stock in Rural OK is ... interesting & a lot of driving. I use a lever on the left side of the steering wheel.

    Super Bronco 42" Blades Engaged

    I have a 2006 Super Bronco. I burned up the belt (mowing over rose bush trimmings) and played a merry chase getting a replacement. It came from Lowe's, not MTD - but correct dimensions Girl Mechanic got the belt on, deck mounted, ready to mow. RIght? WRONG At the lowest deck position, the...
