Ride on mower ID

[YELROM]

We have a John Deere sabre 1336 HR ride on mower and the mowing deck/bed is rotten so was looking to buy a new pattern deck/bed
I assume John Deere just re badge another make so does anyone know what make it is and where would be the best place to buy one

Not 100% sure but they're nothing to do with deere whatsoever. I'm sure something else will fit. I can find out, might be tomorrow though

I have no idea, sorry!

I believe Stiga import Castel branded machines.
May be worth a call.

Unless you can find a decent used one it may not be cost effective to buy new. Might be more than mowers worth unfortunately

Now Then..
I see a new JD deck is £323,00, probably around £250.00 on a stock order and offer prompt settlement..

When we sold our old broken down Castle Garden ride-on last year it fetched more than a quite usable and legal car we moved on at the same time!

Ive a Husquvarna ride on, bought a new bare deck off ebay for about £100,
Would need to check but i think it came over from Ireland.
Fitted perfect, faff changing the brackets and spindles over due to over use of the welder previously, and rusted bolts.

Well with the right words "castle garden" i think i have found the right deck at an affordable price

That’s just the shell. No blade carriers/bearings, pulleys, belts etc.

It makes the complete deck from JD look cheap by comparison, especially if you could get it negotiated for around £250 as noted by Tractortech

Kramp and Granit do replacement Castlegarden decks.

There is an alternative route and that is a compact tractor with finishing mower attached. That was the plan here but getting a decent tractor on grass tyres at a reasonable price is the problem. There are plenty of Japanese rice tractors available but the tyres are designed for paddy fields, not lawns, so if anybody fancies working out a cheap way to get wheels made up that will take used 4x4 car tyres (these are not going to be used on the road) there might be a handy living in it. I appreciate that matching tyre size on 4wd's might be a problem but 4wd is hardly necessary in most gardens so just disconnect it.

Does the JD one definitely come complete with blades, pulley etc

 

[Tractortech]

It's just the deck and hose connector,,,, but it will fit as it's the right thing.
Look it up on JD parts.
