XMark - on last leg!

[Finfeatherfur]

The diagnosis is not good! Just got word that my old trusty XMark mower is on it's last leg. Seems the engine is shot and will need to be replaced/rebuilt. Due to the age/hours on the mower, I am going to buy a new one. Everything still works, deck, hydraulic unit, steering, etc. - just can't see spending a bunch of money on it and hoping that a pump doesn't go out in the next year. If anyone on here knows someone good with engines and wants to take it for a project rebuild or wants it to part out, please let me know. I will post pics of it tonight when I get home and I will take $400 for it. It is the commercial 44" model called the LaserZ and has a Kohler engine.

It has a 18hp Kohler COMMAND on it now and still runs, just no power. No leaks on hydraulic side.

honesty it wouldnt cost much to rebuild unless you have a cracked block. if its just sleeves and rings you could do it yourself for under 500.

was wondering if we could go see it tomorrow?

I have a vertical shaft Kohler that is on a John Deere lawn mower. Not sure the HP but if it is what you need you can have it. I can check on HP tonight

Pm sent

[Finfeatherfur]

I have had several PM's on this. I will respond to them in order they were recieved. Exmark dealer (Congress Outdoor in Lafayette) placed a $500 dollar value on the unit due to age/hours. I am selling it here to SC members for $400.

Not interested in starting another project of rebuilding this one, but thanks anyway. I will be getting a new mower and just want this one gone to make room in my shop.

Thanks!
Bryan
