You are my favorite poster to read by far. You rolled out the red carpet for the JD? Seriously? :roll:
John Deere 220SL Reel Replacement and Reconditioning
5
"Reunited, and it feels so good"...
This was the mower that got it all started for me. The mower that made low cut KBG a reality at my last home. After selling it to a co-worker and he didn't use it to it's full potential, I bought it back from him. I am currently reconditioning it for a cool-season member here, and am excited that soon he will be low mowing cool-season grass as well. This is my favorite mower! It is a 2011 John Deere 220SL with an 11-blade reel. In the next few posts I will show how to replace the reel, bearings, bedknife, as well as some other things as I get it ready for it's new owner.
