Restoring the 170 deer

[Ean]

I was thinking this Sumer after grass cutting is over I might restore it the back is in pretty bad shape paint wise it's not rusted out anywhere no dents I think it would be a good Candate to restore have any of you ever don this

Now when you say restore how far are you going.

As much as I can without removing the engine

You just want to get the mower useable. Maybe new belts and mower deck bearings with a paint job. Not that bad of a job but a little tricky changing the bearing in the double pulley on the deck.

The mower works fine except the pto clutch has a bad bearing the deck could use some bearings but I really just wanted to paint it I will still mow with it but the back is rusty some I'm going to cut with it the first time tomorrow but I just want it to look good
