themcdonalds 0 #1 Posted March 29, 2012 I have a 522xi that is getting old. I need a mower deck for it as the one I have is rusting through. If you own a520-522xi or are knowledgeable about them, I'd like to talk to you. I have access to one in good shape but I don't know if I should buy it or not. themcdonalds@msn.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

themcdonalds 0 #3 Posted April 4, 2012 I pulled the trigger today and bought that unit in Alabama. Got them down to $1500. I wanted to put $100 down; but, to get the $1500 price they wanted $250 down. So now I have to plan a trip to drive down, give it a very close examination, and pay the other $1250. So, as I'm told and from what I've seen, it's a 1998 (or is it 1989?) 520xi with a 60 inch deck. This deck is 320 lbs!!! It has 450 or so hours on it. Looks mint except for the oils leak (rear seal I hope). So I'll take it for a ride cut some grass---if I can find some (it's in a commercial area) and just see how it does. Any suggestions on what to look at or check out? I's still be interested in the deck you mentioned. What's the name or number of the business Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
