    round fender differences

    what is the difference between the fenders on an Original and the ones on the 70/100? i know the bracket is different and the O has the rod between them. but are the fenders themselves the same? i have a pair that i am not sure of. they seem kind of different but its hard for me to tell.

    semi refurb on 100

    Bought this one along with another one and a bunch of parts. it runs and mows good and the plan was to just clean it up and do some tuneup and a quick touchup of the paint to make it looks nice.

    Fix for CC100 steering slop

    what started out as a minor refurb on my latest 100 has turned into one of those “might as well “ jobs. this one has about a quarter rotation play and is a bit sloppy at the dash. is there anything that can be done without pulling the whole thing? and if not, any pointers on pulling the shaft...
