New to site and wanted advice on a new zero turn. I currently have a M7040 loader tractor for farm work and a 2002 ZD 21 with a 60" stamped steel deck.
The mower has been great but looking to upgrade with more power and a better ride. I currently thinking of trading in the ZD 21 for a new Zd 326 with the 60" pro deck.
I test drove a unit Saturday and have a few questions.
1. The controls lever are much more stiff then my old mower, do the get easier to move over time?
2. The seat is better than mine but still not up to the Hustler mower aire ride seat. I was thing of replacing the suspension system for a ET Air Ride seat.
I cut around pastures, pond, ditches and the bumps beat my back up pretty bad.
3. My ZX 21 is set up with bar tires and does pretty good in soft conditions. How are the stock tire and the 326 and has any body switched over to bar tire with good results?
Thanks for your comments.
