leeave96 487 #1 Posted September 16, 2013 When I look at my 42 inch rear discharge deck, it has indentations in it that look kind of like a star-fish pattern. I seem to recall a long time ago that Toro/Wheelhorse offered a reinforcement plate that fit into those recesses/shape. Not sure if the newer 42 side discharge decks had this indented pattern or the 48 SD decks. Anyone recall this deck reinforcement plate and a part number for it? Anyone tried one? Thanks!

GlenPettit 1,714 #2 Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) I wished it was still available; but there is a guy on eBay that makes something like it ($8, is twice as thick as the thinner WH one and must be welded in place), don't know the old WH part number, but here is the eBay item number for his: 261259757162 Edited September 16, 2013 by GlenPettit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Butch 194 #3 Posted September 17, 2013 They should fit the 36" deck shouldn't they? I don't have any cracks but it would be nice to have this extra beef so they don't crack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GlenPettit 1,714 #4 Posted September 19, 2013 (edited) I would certainly think so, I believe all the decks for C-series (and 300-series) have the same spindle hole sizes, but not positive. They guy that makes them as a store on eBay: M&P Custom Machine he makes many custom parts, must have access to a nice plasma cutter at work that he can use. Contact him thru eBay, as he also has a Wheel Horse and may know (just click his store name). Edited September 19, 2013 by GlenPettit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
