    Hey Michael, I'm getting ready to retire this summer and am considering buying a Raptor XL or more likely a "Raptor XD". I'm in agreement that the ZT transmissions would benefit from a reserve tank and need larger batteries. I wasn't aware that changing the oil in the ZT trannies should require bleeding to complete the oil changes and hope you could cover that aspect with a video when you get to that particular maintenance chore. I'd also like to know the right way to burn in the clutch. Looking forward to more of your vids because of how you make the modifications that you want on your machine and how to recognize where the bumps in the road are that you encounter as you do your trial & error of your mods. You do a pretty good job of telling/showing What, How, Where, Why & relating what is a relative success or failure as you go. I would expect that'll save me some time money and know what works and what doesn't work when I get started. Thanks

    Hustler's design and quality control seem to decline with every passing year. We have had 3 Hustler zero turn mowers over the years and each has been worse than the one before. Hustler ignores any problem that they can't fix and the selling dealer is just as unknowing.

    Resembles my fender creation. I made mine just the width of the tread which I like a bit better. But then, you have your own taste and those look very nice and you can sell them. Mine went through the flex forks over the top of the tire so when I was backing up it didn't throw trash onto the front of the deck. You can add an extension to yours in the event you find backing up still deposits debris. Great job Sir!

    Great Idea With The Hook, Seen Your Video And Had To Buy The Drain House! I Made A Great Contraption That Works Much Like The One You Made But The House Looks Like Something Should Have Been Installed In The First Place! I Have a Yellow Drain Plug That Locks In And Pulls Out To Open The Valve So It Will Just Spin Right Out Without Doing Anything! It's A Kawasaki Engine So It Should Have The Right Threads? I Hope. Anyway The Hook Idea Is Something A Will Want To Get So The Hose Isn't Rattling Around Or Rubbing And Cutting Into The Hose. Thanks For The Video. The Guy I Bought The Tractor From Said That Changing The Oil Was A Disaster And Oil Spill Every time! My Contraption Worked Great and No Spill But More Work Connecting So This (No Nonsense Hose Deal) Looks To Be A Winner!

    My front fenders didn't hit anything, the neighbor just thought they looked terrible. Mine looked nice as they were yellow HDPE that were half inch off the tire and same radius. But then too, the deck skirts worked perfectly and I'm happy with those and looks great. The rear mud flaps I never bolted on. Been working on and off for years on making fenders with a flap built in front and rear formed around the tires. Just can't make myself like the looks I keep coming up with. Reminds me of the Swishers from a few years ago. lol Great video young man. You need to medicate that cat. Just way too rambunctious. hahaha.

Worked great other than moving up and down over abrupt curbs so I removed them. Not to mention how hidious the neighbor said they looked.
