kdb50ss 4 #1 Posted January 15, 2020 I am new to this forum, and just bought a 1993 310-8 its in great condition, but the lift lever will not lock. I took it apart tonight and I think the spring inside the handle is weak, I took off the mower deck and can get the lever lock to enage when I push up from the bottom or pull up on the rod. Anyone know where I can get a new spring, before I took it apart? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,033 #4 Posted January 15, 2020 Item #4 from any Toro dealer It is located below pin #5 in the rod so it lifts the rod. https://www.partstree.com/models/73320-310-8-toro-garden-tractor-sn-039000001-039999999-1993/manual-lift-linkage-22/ Garry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
