OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions On Ride On Mowers Questions on Rover Ride On Mower Rover Rancher 28166 Help needed

G'day everyone. Hoping someone out there can help me. I removed Deck Springs to work on Auto Drive months ago and now I cannot remember where they fit!
Thanks
Lance

Hi LKC,

Looking at the parts manual it looks to be as I've drawn them below .

I can't see the correct scale of the parts in the drawing (and only half the parts)so I'm assuming that part B doesn't fit into the deck.

You should be able to work out the correct alignment of the spring once one end is in the deck.


Cheers
Max.

Hi Maxwestern,
That is a big help, I am sure I will be able to sort it from that diagram. It had me buggered because I could not see rub marks or obvious mounting points.......just looking in the wrong spots! Should be using the mobile phone and taking pics before i even touch things. Thanks for your help

I am having trouble finding the bracket No 6 in the diagram. Is it on top of the diff?

Hi Winegrower,

No it shouldn't be on the diff, I can't find any good images online but there is a different model Rover than shows the rough position
of the springs.

Looks like the springs go from the lifting bracket for the deck to the deck.
