Well, here is a status update on the 10323 duraforce. I took it apart and cleaned up the deck and took it down to the media blaster. The media blasting went well but the steel mower deck is in far worse shape than it appeared. I found 3 pin holes where rust had gotten through, there was major pitting on the bottom of the deck. Now, before I go any further with this...how hard is it to find another steel deck for a Duraforce 2 stroke? The engine runs very good and would hate to trash it. I have called around no 1 around me has any steel decks laying around. Any suggestions?
