I badly want to put a QwikChute on my 48" Tiger Cub. The problem is that when I called to order they told me they only have chutes for 48" Velocity decks and I have the older Advantage deck.
They do make a chute for the 52" Advantage deck. If anyone has a 52" Advantage deck and could give me 1) the measurements between the spindle guard and bracket that holds the stock black deflector guard and 2) the measurements between the two vertical tabs on the bracket that hold the deflector guard so that I could see if it would fit. I've attached a picture.
My theory is that the 52" deck is longer, but not necessarily wider and I could make the chute for the 52" work on my 48".
Or if you have any recommendations for another chute product that I could go with. Thank you so much. It would be extremely helpful.
The stock Scag plastic chute is the same part number for both the 48 and 52 Advantage decks.
If anything, the Qwikchute for the 52 Advantage deck may be a little longer than needed, but I think that it would fit and work fine.
Scag still makes several machines with Advantage decks and similar decks but with a wider discharge opening are found on the ZTRs below the Tiger Cat line.
