Recently took ownership of LT155 with timed mower deck. Repaired engine issues -(carb-wiring ) and retimed deck belts correctly. Problem is -no hood- seems to be a common issue with this model for some reason as everyone I see listed has no hood. Price on hood scared me out of my nickers . Is there any other models that interchange or will do. Kinda like the way it cuts even though it really needs blades . Price on them will cause heart attack as well !!

One of the reasons I do not recommend JD to my customers. JD plastic hoods seem to be particularly brittle and easily broken. JD is a well known brand and they make good products, but you pay a price for that JD green.

Very true--I have 2 1986-87 F-930 series mowers that I still use on an irregular basis. Love them. Recently saw a LT 160 mower for sale and hood looked very much the same. Any body know if it would fit my 155 ??

Why are John Deere mowers green?












It's the color of money.?
