OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping Wanted Model 45 - Reel Bearing Housing for 17" SB

Hey guys I recently ran over a rock which jammed my front roller causing the right(looking from behind handels) bearing housing for the front roller to fail.

Does anyone have any spares as they don't make them anymore. I'll take anymore set if it makes it easier.

Hi Solman,

Honestly if you are talking about a Model 45 I have absolutely no idea as to what you are implying as this model doesn't have any bearings in the front roller.

Maybe a photo would help us sort out your issue.

Cheers,

Sorry not the front roller the actual cutting reel

i found an image, hopefully this helps

Hi Solman,


Well there's a shock to the system as it's showing that they are discontinued and that's news to me. I have another source which I'll chase up and we'll see how I go. Stay tuned.

I'd say that your reel and bottom blade (bedknife) are also damaged.

Cheers,
BB.

Hi Solman,

My other source seems to have also dried up on these carriers. Looks like it's second hand or nothing at this point in time.

I'm sure they'll be remanufactured again, but now it seems as though you might have to do the mower shop ring around and believe me it won't be cheap..

Sorry.

BB.

thanks for the info BB.

I think i may have been able to source a second hand set, hopefully it comes through.

Im hoping the reel and bed knife are not too damaged hopefully i can get away with just a resharpening.
