20 HP 48" Scotts garden tractor

[Pearl]

Picking it up for free tomorrow morning (Hubby, Pearl has to work )!! Opinions wanted! Made in '99, 2000, 2001 by John Deere, 20 HP twin Kohler, 48" mower deck, PTO! The engine runs fine, needs deck work! Knowing us we will be mowing with it tomorrow!! And some cool fun... Hubby made a working transaxle for a Craftsman mower today out of two bad ones! So the old green bean Craftsman will be mowing again!! Back to the Scotts, JD has been known for bad transaxles ( amongst other things), but this may be old enough to be awesome!! Updates tomorrow!!

Great find! Mechanical skills are a great thing to have! Should be able to get a lot of years out of it!

Hopefully all the deck needs are some new spindle houses, spindle shafts, and/or pulleys. Or, maybe an idler spring.
