I picked up this 92 Craftsman II, LT4000 with the bagger for free.
The machine was in descent condition, however when I first got it, the machine was locked up. It turned out the brake was rusted frozen and the belts were frozen onto the pulley's. I spent under $50 to get this machine into full operational order. I have named it Bush I, because it was built and sold in 1992 in the USA while President Bush I was in office, (to give you an idea of how old it is). Also the original Tecumseh 12.5hp OHV Gold engine was replaced at somepoint by the original owner with another Tecumseh 12.5hp OHV engine, except it's a 1998 engine, has the backup pull starter and a fixed Jet carb. The engine runs great and has a ton of power, in fact when I first got the tractor going I found that If I put it in 5th gear with out the deck, it would lift off and the entire front end would do a wheelie taking me a good foot off the ground!
Excellent shape for a 25 year old machine that sat for who knows how long.
Repairs I made to get it going.
Replaced coil on engine, other coil was bad no spark.
Replaced ignition switch, it was shot.
Removed brake soaked it in oil/WD40 for two days. The two bolts that hold it to the trans were frozen.......
