i would like any info. that is available for striping on the super z. ive tried doubles but the blowout isnt worth the small improvement in striping. im also not wild about the chains. i e mailed big league lawns and they said they dont have anything so far. any other ideas?
thanks

Our engineering department is working on a stripe kit.
I do not have any info on when it will be ready for production, and I have no pricing info.
Sorry....
I will let everyone know as soon as they are ready for sale.

It is not chains.
They are working on a couple different prototypes.
Thats all I can tell you for now.

I made a kit for my Super z with a rubber flap (converyor belt). Mounted the kit to the black bracket that the back of the deck hangs by. I utilized a 1-1/2" perforated square tube and mounted it to the TOP of the bracket. I actaully sandwiched three pieces of rubber for extra rigidity. Had to cut the rubber flap to fit around the bracket in four spots. There was not enough room to mount the unit under the bracket. Unit works pretty well - would prefer a roller though.

WLLD, do you have any pics of the mower or the stripe it leaves? I just bought my first super Z and would like to improve the stripe. What kind of blades do you run and do you run doubles?

I put a rupper flap on the back of my deck a few months ago helped alot but not as good as a roller.

No pictures - let me see if I can get some.

I am running doubles - Gator on the bottom and stock Hustler on the top (had to get a bolt 1/4" longer). I have read somewhere here that Bobcat offset blades work good.

The bobcat highlift offset are the best when you run doubles.

Finally took some pictures of the kit on the 60" Super Z 25hp Kawasaki. There will be several to follow.

So for doubles are you running TWO bobcat highlift offset blades or one stock hustler blade and one bobcat highlift offset... and if the latter which is on top and which is on bottom?

one more, you can see a few stripes here in the background, this is a non irrigated lawn. the kit in no way interferes with the productin of the mower.
