| Curious what that silver one's Briggs muffler setup is like. I think some of those came stock, I notice it has a slightly different lower grill half. I swapped a briggs into one of mine last summer and still figuring a muffler for it. | |

yeah I can snap a pic later on of it, I like that tractor, but its the ugliest...I know it would be easier getting parts for it rather than the onan or tecumseh.... you have a yellow one like that right? | |

yeah you think? I don't think I could get that, I paid 200 for it.... nothing wrong with it other than the guy put a push button start on it when the ignition failed or something... From what I see around here it could be worth 600-800, it came with a plow, but I have a dozer blade I might put on it. | |

| That looks big, LOL. I'm use to seeing the ones with the 10hp engines in them. I guess everyone calls them the LT versions, with the 42 double blade deck. Looks like this one has a 3 bladed deck, 10 inch rims on back with 8 inch rims on the front, cast front axle, with all the trimmings. I stripped mine that someone gave me just for the parts. Loved the front axle on mine so much that I'll be using it for a Mini Banshee build that I'm doing soon (I hope). | |

Keep an eye out at scrapyards, auctions, Facebook marketplace, and the like. They're not that hard to come by. | |
