A mate rang me a while ago saying that somebody had dropped off a Victa 16hp ride on mower that had stopped cutting and for him to have a look at and see if he could fix it. Apparently the deck bearings have collapsed and this is why the belt has come off. When I told him he would have to remove the deck to replace the bearings his head went into a bit of a meltdown. I am heading up there tomorrow to finish off fitting a new motor in his Greenfield and I just wanted to know if anybody had any info on these Victas before I get up there. He was muttering things like it is near impossible to remove the deck, but I think it would be near impossible to replace the bearings without removing the deck. Seeing it is twin blade I'm assuming it will have 3 sets of deck bearings. Any thoughts?
