fast88pu 3,324 #1 Posted August 24, 2023 I recently acquired my 522xi back that I sold a few years back. This will be my main mowing machine again. Since getting it back home I have been looking for a 60" deck for it but nothing local. So figured I'd see how my luck is at my local dealer (relative). With hopes of finding a good used one, but no luck. What I did find was 2 Nos one the never have been mounted or seen grass. The bottoms are like new but tops are sun faded from years of being outside in the sun. One is a 1996 and other is a 1998. They look better all cleaned up. 4 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
