My Dixon Ultra 52 just broke it's second discharge shoot. Is there a better, more flexible chute that will fit? Maybe from a Husqvarna? I may try making my own out of a mud flap or floor mat.
Thanks,
Jerry

No none of them are flexable. I cut mine down to barely fit past my deck so I did not hit anything with it anymore.

I built one out of a dually mud flap and gate hinges. May need some fine tuning. Hope to give it a workout this weekend.

Drill a little hole in the chute
Poke a piece of rope through it or fit an small eye bolt with some rope on it.
Pull the rope when you are likely to hit something that will break the chute.

or

Remove the spring then put a small weight on the end of the flap to keep it down.

Maybe a bungee to keep it up a little?
