muz123 1,192 #2 Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) Yes, they are one of the best mowing decks. Not to heavy but not to light. I used one for 17 years to mow 3 acres. Good luck! Edited June 17, 2015 by muz123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tbarnhart 240 #3 Posted June 17, 2015 I don't think they ever offered a 48" rear discharge. 42"s were both side and rear, but 48"s were side only. Easiest way to distinguish between the two is where the mower height adjustment lever is. 42"s were on the right, 48"s were on the left. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Racinbob 11,977 #5 Posted June 17, 2015 I'm thinking like Brian and tbarnhart. I've never seen a 48" RD. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wishin4a416 2,191 #7 Posted June 18, 2015 I have never seen a RD 48 in person or for sale. Just 36,37? and 42. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tarcoleo 119 #8 Posted June 19, 2015 Thanks guys. I thought I was right to tell the guy he was full of grass clips. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tunahead72 2,551 #9 Posted June 21, 2015 Just to give the guy the benefit of the doubt, he may have been measuring his deck incorrectly, measuring the overall width instead of the actual cutting width. Just a thought. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,523 #10 Posted June 23, 2015 Ditto. Never saw a RD 48" deck. 42's yes, 48's no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tarcoleo 119 #11 Posted July 2, 2015 Thanks guys . I might have gotten to the bottom (pun) of the matterif they guy were not so insistent that his deck was as advertised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
