Uhh...
I don't think thats a Dixon...
you will have to add it to your mower profile... Ferris is a good line.
Looks great and the springer shocks look like you are going to have a nice ride... :smile:KennyV

Ran it for two minutes just to check it out last weekend and it must have gotten a stick in the engine pulley because it threw the deck belt ant tore it up. 70 bucks later I have a new deck belt waiting to be installed. I hope it was a stick and not a "feature". There was a stick laying on the ground behind the mower when I got off to see what the heck was wrong.
Then two days later my Subaru blew a head gasket on the way home from work.
I am having a good week so far.
Come on weekend!!

WoW $70 for a deck belt... I run some serious big & long belts... for a lot less than 70 ...
What size belt is that?
Good luck with the head gasket change, just a time consuming job, & unhandy..... :smile:KennyV

I think it's 176 inches by 5/8 plus it's covered by Kevlar or some such thing to reduce heat buildup. That was the low end price. There were listings for it in the 80s and 90s. It should last for years if you aren't someone like me:)
I simply don't have time to do the head gaskets right now so it is in the shop.
If this was the middle of winter or summer I would definitely do it myself.

Thanks for the links.
They don't look covered like the stock one but at half price, it might be worth it.
