Hi RS members. I picked up a 42"rear discharge deck the other day. Can someone tell me the blade number and does it use the 6738 spindle belt also? Thanks, Bill

From my notes on my 1988 42" Rear Discharge Deck

 

Blades

14-4879 (3 blade pack)  or 3 ea of 79-2920
Blades are 14-1/2 in. long,  Some suppliers are selling shorter blades (Gator)
------------------------
Deck Belt is 106125

PTO to Mower Deck Belt

The 42" rear discharge uses Toro 108834 [1/2"x98"], 6898 Gates 1/2"x98", 4L980W Napa 1/2"x98", 248-098 Stens 1/2"x98"

----------------------------
PTO belt is

Toro 108834 [1/2"x98"]
6898 Gates 1/2"x98"
4L980W Napa 1/2"x98"


Spindle belt
Toro 6738 {HA/4Lx86"}
6886 Gates 1/2"x86"
4L860W Napa 1/2"x86"
----------------------------

 

Be careful with blades,  Many after market suppliers will sell you the blades from the 42in side discharge deck.  Those blades are 14" long and if used will leave a gap of uncut grass between the blade.  Ask me how I know.
