Welcome to the group fellow Kentuckian, where abouts are you hailing from? I'm near LaGrange. Yes, applies to all SD's. Here is a pic comparing the old and new braces:

I took this pic of a RSD60 at Lowes yesterday:

I bought a trailer sprayer last year and have used it quite a lot, it came with a crappy 12V power harness that clips to the battery and has an inline switch which might work well for a lawn tractor, but is worthless for a ZTR --gotta reach out behind you, over the engine to reach the switch...

So my neighbor is selling their house, they took some aerial drone shots of it, etc.... I am kinda amazed at the view from above. Hustler Domination! Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone.

Ok, so I cut the bar out about a week and a half ago and have mowed three times since. Here is my handiwork and paint, already re-dirty: The 3rd mow was last night, after raining ALL day here in Louisville on Saturday (I'm sure many of you saw it on TV). We had sun about half of Sunday...

It wouldn't be too hard to enhance the original design brace. But after having both in my hands now and examining them up close, the new design is nearly twice the metal thickness and more generous all around. Certainly the bottom is where they break, and it could be beefed up without a whole...

So I don't plan on adding a light kit, really ever... last night I filled the control panel light switch cutout by installing this handy panel mount voltmeter from amazon: I made up a Y splice for the 1/4" spades that power the hour meter and the new meter dropped right in, switched with...

Here is my heat shield with the tow hitch part folded back 90 degrees and secured in the back of the rail with two nuts and bolts I punched through. I also reinforced the hitch area previously by sistering up a sheet of 1/8" steel. update for better lighting:

One of the front tires on my RSD keeps loosing air over the course of a couple weeks. I have not found any punctures or tears. These are tubeless tires right? I'm suspecting the bead. I think it is time to pull it and dunk in a bucket.

Pics from my mow last night, can't really see the top, but it is bent over like a J, around the top and part way down the back of the anchor. It may look tight but the clutch can still move around, a business card can slip easily in there when you spin the clutch to one side.

Hi all, I'm looking at options for a front mount spreader for my RSD54. I really dislike tow broadcast spreaders and with a walk out basement and wing walls they all look too narrow and tippy for navigating the terrain. I'd like to take advantage of the maneuverability and stability of the...

I tried some CAT yellow 4C-4200 I had in a spray can. it is close, but not quite. I used it on the bottom half of the rear frame here: It might be a good primer for an exact match.

With past talk about springs and belt tension I present for discussion the factory RSD tension spring and the spring used on many/most other models, x-one, fastrack, etc...

Hi All, I mowed again with my Raptor SD 54 last night. On the first mow last week, even going slow, I clogged the discharge a half dozen times. Last night was more of the same, it stops discharging. I shut it down and pull out a brick of grass right at the base of the chute, where it hangs...
