1711 Deck Rebuild

[mikemartin]

I had the deck on this 1985 1711 media blasted. Getting new hub assemblies and bogey wheels, new decals.

The deck has been rebuilt new hubs and belts and blades. We recently built a new building to house this car restoration 'hobby' of mine. We will use the 1711 to mow around this building. The 1711 needs a new seat. Where best to get one of those?

To my knowledge, the best aftermarket seat out there is the K&M model 7519. It is the closest to OEM as possible. I've used them on 3 of my Cubs. They have two bolt patterns, and use a steel pan. They are not cheap, as they commonly sell for $150 plus if you can find them.

Why didn't you repair the left side deck runner before you painted it??

The K&M seat is not aftermarket. It comes direct from Michigan Seat which is the OEM supplier to CNH.
