Hi,
I have a JD M655 commercial ZT mower that I am working on and both of the steering shock dampers are gone and no longer work. The part number is Suspa c16-18498 which I have found, but found out after some research that it is a discontinued size and a special order costing about $100 a piece..a bit much in my mind... Having measured the compressed length and extended length to be about 6.5" compressed and 9.5" extended, I wondered about getting another aftermarket one, however I don"t know what the pound rating of the damper is and don"t want to venture a guess and order and be wrong. Can anyone shed any light on this for me? Thanks in advance.
