POS Junk - Mower Build

got this sucker in a Trade against the bagger attachment from my Widebody











The steering skips teeth, the whole mower is damn wobbly (way wobblier than MTD), the Engine very hard to turn over by hand, some botcheries on it, junky transaxle,...

prolly pulling the Engine and Transaxle, looking if I can fit the FNR into it, a 5HP Briggs Quantum and a pulley swap so it does 15MPH governed, or 20MPH ungoverned with a chinese engine

I really have no motivation to build this rig, but I need money, and in this shape it's worth NOTHING! Time will tell what happens with this rig lol

Lol my name is Cooper

But U R way cooler than this sucker!!

Since you like destroying stuff, Sebastian, throw one of your v-twins in temporarily and put a super high pulley swap and destroy the spicer.

No. I will pull the Spicer and sell it! if I see that it's worthless to build this POS I will sledgehammer it!!

Don't sledge it, start a demolition derby with mowers. That actually sounds fun. But somebody'd probably get killed.

Prolly me! Eh that would be lit asf ! FNR Lincoln locked, Pusher Engine, 1:1 or 3:2 pulley swap, crappy wheelbarrow wheels, ACTION! and driving it with fullspeed against a wall or tree!! SOUNDS LIKE SO MUCH FUN FOR THE SUMMER!!
Just need to find some time..... which is the biggest problem rn.

Demolition derbies are where the cars (or in this case, mowers) drive into each other and try to destroy one another. Walls are better than nothing I guess.

I have nobody else here to crash mowers but I could drive it over roots and downhill and whatever or roll it down a cliff

Interesting thread this is....

yeah, a POS Beater Rig that needs to get some serious abuse and beaten up just for fun since its not worthy for a quality build

actually took a closer look to this Junk Rig today!

since the snow started to melt and is 90% gone, I moved it to my outddor storage, adn parked it next to the Dynamark that's still waiting for some time to build it!



I also took a closer look to the frame, steering setup, levers, clutch, ....





the frame is twisted, bent, wobbly,... it seems to me like even MTDs are better built, compared to my MTD!

the Flatty seems to be DOM 95



and the MOST DISGUSTING THING!!!



YES; I CA'NT BELIEVE IT!!! THIS POS IS BUILT BY AYP!!! What a shame to that nice brand!!

And the Plans for it changed!!!

- Engine will be pulled and stored
- Transaxle will be pulled and oil filled
- Transaxle is going to get swapped into MTD, since MTD doesnt needs a ,,beefy" MST, just for ripping on the lawn the Spicer will do the Job!
- Fenders getting chopped and reused on the Dynamark or Widebody build, as front fenders to protect myself from mud and crap that gets thrown everywhere from the tires
- gas tank will be reused as rear gas tank in the 4X4 Mud Murray
- Every part off it that seems to be able and worthy to get reused will be reused in other builds!

Gonna Update you for more progress and demolition to this ,,freebie" (which wasn't free since the bagger stuff that came off the Widebody were kinda paid since I bought the Widebody)

A 28 cubic inch 11 horse. That’s interesting, most of the 11s are 25 cubic inch

so every engine model code tells U the cubic inch the 1st 2 numbers?

Prolly this thing just doesn't rip that high just around 2-2,5k rpm so its sold as 11hp

Exactly

Thanks!! That's really helpful for me! Just need to beat my poor math skills so I know H much ccs this is lol

25 cubic inches is 400 cc I think, so I’d call that roughly 440cc

Actually found a page in the WWW there U just type in your cubicinch displacement and it converts it to CC

Was I close? Lol

yes! U R a Math Pro

Decided to take a walk through the 16" of snow here to my outdoor storage area, to look how btlf the snowy mowers will look...







once the snow is gone, I will start pulling the junk mower apart, and storing the Dynamark frame and some parts inside (need to build a shelf first)

WORK ALERT

Mower demo derbies are a fairly common thing here in KY, although i haven't been to one yet.

To find a fairly close CC from CI multiply your CI by 16.4. Or to find CI from CC divide your CC by 16.4. I actually figured that out when I was bored in detention once lol.

nice! thx.

Last Weekend I decided to clean the shop, and had 1 hr left, so I decided to tear the main gems off this POS Mower before some Refugees come and steal it!

Pulled the 11HP Flathead, Spicer Transaxle, front & rear wheels. Ress of this POS will be reused in other projects!







Drained the Oil off the Flathead, it was just black gas!

The Spicer is spinning nice & shifts

Rims R in good shape, tires R slightly dry rotted! They're the same rims as my AYPs, so I will junk the tires & throw AGs on those Rims!
