Ya that was the issue we were having. We'd go to mow a lot with it and you basically had to two hand it to get the 60" up. Only downfall of that toro imo, it was slower than some of the others but it was built like a tank. When I got my 60" hustler for my personal property and found the foot deck lift I was stoked. I dont jump curbs on my property (well sometimes) but its great for navigating over roots fast.
Is that your fox in the video? I had an 89 with ponys.
The curb at the street is so aggressive where I live that to mow around the mailbox and sidewalk I have to finesse the deck height or it will scrub down to the dirt. I'm not necessarily trying to hop curbs, but... I sorta mow them.
Yep. 91 GT, 5.0/5 speed, double black under all the dust. Funny you mentioned it, because said curb is so aggressive the car won't make it out of the driveway without Race Ramps. Several of my neighbors regular street cars scrape in and out of the driveway on a daily basis.
