Ahhhhhhhhh spring is almost here..... So i might as well start my 2012 thread for new equipment/stripes. Anyways i picked this used 60 inch walkbehind up today to add to the fleet, Were going to branch into 2 crews this year so i needed another walkbehind for the new guy so he doesn't destroy my newer one.
Tomorrow we are taking everything out of storage and starting the spring maintenance on it. Im hoping to actually take a pic with all the equipment lined up but we will see.
Oh i know it will lol, Some people are nerds when it comes to safety. I have never in my entire life seen a garage door spring explode during normal use, Also my garage door springs stretch 3 times as far as the one on my gate does.
Why would a large eye bolt hold it any different from say a large bolt, or a clip??? please explain why you dont think an eye bolt would work in this situation.
Ill take a few pics if you want. it was real simple to do.
lol we did have tacos for lunch, Welding isn't real hard once you get used to it man honestly this was only like my 3rd time welding anything worth welding lol

I think the spring assist looks sweet.The only thing I would add is a large washer on the I-bolt, just in case the spring gets lazy and tries to slip over round part of the I-bolt. As far as adding the cable, I wouldn't. You are stretching the spring probably less that a third of it's limit, I bet it'll last longer than the rest of the trailer.

I have 4 mowers i am looking at all options 56 rider exmark two 61 inch scags and 48 inch exmark and a 22 push mower toro trying to find the best combo
I just noticed how the eyebolt is holding your spring. I simply used one of these.......Only a little bigger. Same thing tho. I'd definately use these instead of washers, just sayin.

Yea i used the quick connector to secure the other side of the spring to the trailer, maybe ill buy a dew more and use it to secure it to the eye bolt as well.
I wish i could find enough good employees to run that many mowers on one crew Thumbs Up. Seems like all i can find are ppl who want to come to work drunk or drunks who cant drive to work because they lost there license lol
Did alittle mulch at one of the commercials yesterday.
The building is so long i stood in the middle and took a pic of both the left and right side.
This is the back of the building there is a front side that looks identical that we mulched as well.
