I have a John Deere 317, and want to put on a leaf bagger. John Deere says there is no system for the 317 available. Any of you guys run into this? I remember my grandad had a unit that was run by a seperate gas engine, it hung off the back of his riding mower, and he had a pull behind cart as well. That has been a long time ago, and I have never seen one like that since. Leaves are starting to pile up, and I have a 2 acre yard to keep up. Any ideas??? Thanks

I am building one right now. I have two acres with lots of trees and im tired of raking. I already have the impeller that is from an old Simplicity 3 pt system. I bought an engine on ebay last night. Way overpowered but thats the fun of it. Im going to have it mounted to the tongue of a lawn cart. Im pretty much copying the commercial ones but alot more powerful for alot less money. Some of the expensive brands out there $$$ are Bluebirdintl.com , Tracvac.com , Peco.systems. Sears makes one as well as lowes carries Agri-fab which are alot cheaper in price than the others i mentioned. Oh yea, Northern Tools carries one or two also. I am waiting for the engine so i should have it completed in a week or so. If it doesent work out im going to use the engine for a logsplitter and cook hotdogs with all wood!

I have one of the pull behind vacuums and it works great. Also have a friend with a pull behind that is for sale but we are in MN. Also have a friend with a unite on his 317 that works great and the unite works off the mower deck to run the fan. If i had your email i could send a pic

Agri-Fab is one of the manufactors of this device. Lowes is one source of purchase. You can find one on Lowes web site. I think they are about $900.00. Hope this helps.
