[QUOTE="overboard, post: 284390, member: 6547"] Good to hear about the simplicity! I own a Deutz Allis 917H. This is a simplicity 7117. Any part for it is available from a simplicity dealer. It's been brutalized, and I've only replaced 1 pulley on the tractor, and the main shaft and pulley on the deck, other than the normal few belts and rollers. Also, only on the second set of blades, which seem to last forever, even after hitting rocks, roots, stumps, or whatever. This is one tough machine, and i'm very happy with the service it's given me for some 20+ yrs. Also wondered if, when it's time to replace it, the new ones are anywhere near as good. Maby it's time to go to a zero-turn??? [/QUOTE]
