I feel for you. These were great machines. I have the same 8HP model that I too bought new in the 90s. I remeber arguing with the company owner back then with me asking why not come out with a model with a reverse? He didn't want too, was afraid it would back up over someone frail. In or near raspberry and other thorn bushes, that was an issue for me. Anyway I went on using mine for another decade. One day the bar holding the pulley tensioner arm broke off the frame. I welded it back together and it worked for about 10 minutes before it broke again a half inch behind the first break. Sigh. I called and learned the company had been sold and was told the new owners had zero interest in supporting the old models, but were willing to sell me a new design. Double sigh. Eventually I caved and bought one of the newer ones, and lo, it has a reverse and a bigger engine too. I still have that one too. It has had 20 years of use here with only broken pulley spring problem which was quickly fixed. Anyway, the company has changed owners several times, but at least for as long as parts last they still support many of the other models. They keep changing small design features every year so now there are many models of their walk behind. My current plan is to find a broken one on Ebay someday and use it for parts to fix the deck arm of the original one. I have also learned on my original DR the bearings on the shaft holding the blade no longer limit up and down movement of the blade shaft as the cover plate has deep grooves made by impacts. There is about a quarter inch of up and down play, shouldn't be any. I used to have a lot of small boulders hidden in my meadows. I will replace the bearings. I also have the finishing mower attachment for it, so I would really like to get mine running again as that finishing mower did a great job. You should know absolutely no one makes a tire for those wheels anymore, so when they wear smooth, that will be it until you find an alternative wheel design.

I ordered a front suspension kit for my 95 Toyota and paid 140 bucks… I didn’t know it but it was made it China with cheap ass steel……. I’m 17 and want to kill myself. This is such bullshit. I wasted all my money and a normal suspension kit Is like 600…. I didn’t even realize I was buying a 100 dollar kit when normal good USA made suspension kits are sold for 600 😭😭😭 fml man

I ordered 2 shocks for my ZR2. $600 each. Both defective. I received both shocks in one box. Returned them both in one box. They reimbursed me for one shock and said I should have sent the other shock to another location. Since i didn't, no refund on the other shock. They stole over $600 from me. Buyer beware

1.) Your glyphosate didn't work, you are going to want to come back and spray that asap. 2.) It's not covering because you're planting it way too wet. A big ag planter cant cover beans in mud.

Thanks for the response, I’m actually trying to get away from the telescoping moultree feeders, because they have 7-8 days max. The one I built is a 55 gal plastic drum cut in half, im assuming the two halves will hold about 300lbs… was hoping to get 3-4 weeks out it. Do you think that’s possible? Or would it go bad in that time?

Yeah, I know here comes the hate. Yes the Marines before me were probably tougher but the ones after I served in the mid 80’s are definitely a little more lax. I never heard one person at Parris Island ever say good job to anyone . Not during graduation , not ever. Nobody said thank you for your love and appreciation. None of us were kicked back in initial issue, drinking soda or juice juice and having a civilian hand us go fasters like we were shopping at a footlocker store. Now 4 th battalion is gone and men and women are integrated like the stinking army has been for years? No, thank you.
