My wife is happy with her new Ferris IS 3200Z except it doesn't stripe as well as her old TORO. The Ferris came with the rubber flap type attached to the back of the deck and all I can say is that it is there.
I made one for her TORO many years ago attached to the back of the 52 inch deck and it lays down some really nice stripes and she wants the new Ferris to do the same.
She wanted one on the back behind the rear tire so I went to our local Menards and bought what I think I needed.
The roller is made out of a 4 inch piece of PVC pipe with the ends plugged with a 5/8 inch shaft running through it and is filled with concrete. I weighs about 50 pounds. Today was the first time she used it and she is happy with the stripes. I have to make some changes but all in all it worked great. I don't have pictures to post yet but it is 48 inches wide roller and the 61 inch deck.
