Fordiesel69 259 #1 Posted June 1, 2017 Are you guys finding that these are getting harder and harder to find? I was quoted $1700 from a dealer for a replacement 42" SD. They stated the price of the shell is too expensive and that it would not be worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarge 3,463 #2 Posted June 1, 2017 Toro has gone well north of reality with pricing on the remaining wheel horse stock on most parts - those deck shells are one of the best examples . Most of us just find a reasonably solid deck and repair it , after all - they are only sheet metal and can easily be repaired with some metal working skills .

nylyon-(Admin) 7,268 #3 Posted June 1, 2017 A 42" RD shell is about $700 new and still available. I suspect it will be a supply and demand thing, once the demand stops so will the supply (at least for new). I just bought a new 42" recently so I chipped in to the demand portion for the team!

varosd 1,185 #4 Posted June 1, 2017 I have taken 42" SD and RD vertical shaft decks and converted over to use with our beloved rigs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
