OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Restoring, Customising and Modifying Other Walk-Behind Rotary Mowers MASPORT - President 4000 Resto

Here's one i prepared earlier.. Moved it to a new home the day after it was completed.
Late model wheels and axles came off a donor Masport president 4000.

I'll have to start putting more effort into my painting.
Nice big wheels.
Seen a lot of decks on those, collapse around the rear axle.
Like those Victa handle clamps, good and solid.

Yeah, pretty common for the masports to collapse around the rear axle due to the flimsy spreader bar breaking off. If the chassis are any good i generally use a length of M8 all thread to replace the missing bar and keep the rear section spread as it should.

That is a good fix, love to hear other approaches to fixing mowers, cheers
