dropdown34 9 #1 Posted April 28, 2014 I've been working on the mower deck for my D200. The D200 is a '76 and the mower deck is a '96-'97 78260. I had to fabricate a front hit bar for the mower and a lift arm on the tractor. Here are those pictures: Once I made sure that nothing would fall off or fail, I got to work on the grass/weeds. This was the first time this year for cutting the grass it was at least 12" tall. In some places it was not only 12" tall but it was a "tall fescue" type of grass that was so thick that I had to mow it at a snail's pace, but the Beast never stopped or failed me. I did have to readjust the mower belt once. I have taked the pecaution of ordering a new belt, this one I have was from my father's first try back in '76. So this belt is almost 40yrs old. It worked great just as the D-200 did. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
