Craftsman Model: 917.249941

I can find all kinds of info on this,,,manual,,parts diagram, but nowhere does it say what tractors this fits. Or what year it was made. Seems this would be some information needed and available. But it is not.
Anyone know?? I spent allot of time searching.

The only thing I can tell you is 917 means it was made by AYP/Roper/Husky for a 42 inch deck. The companies name kept changing. If it were me I would go into a Sears store and ask the people in the lawn and garden department what it fits. They should have a book that tells them that. Roger

I went through the entire 2010 fit-up chart but did not see it listed. It must be very new or very old.

I really don't know either way,,,,,I just got it. But it is in great shape if it is old.

This could not have worked out better.

A friend told me to look out for a bagger for him. So when I seen this I thought it might work for him.
I had model number for his tractor and this bagger,,and after hours of searching I couldn't tell if it was the right one.

Called Sears,,,and they said it was the recommended bagger for his tractor. A 2001 craftsman. This bagger does not look that old.

I took it to him and it mounted right up ,,,,,and worked great.

I bought it on a GT,,,,as a extra,,,sold it to him at a friends price,,,,all is good.

So this grass catcher must be from about 2001.

I find it very hard to believe there is zero info on what this bagger will fit ,,even with model number. I looked very hard, the info is no listed anywhere.

I am happy though and so is my friend,,,,,,a great find..
Thanks for the help!!!!

I swear this bagger has been stored for 9 years,,,not a mark/scare on it!!!

It is hard to believe that this model is not listed anywhere. I guess you got lucky. Glad it all worked out well. :trink40:

It is listed,,,,I found the parts list for it and a manual ,,but no where does it say what it will mount to. At least not that I could find..

That's what I meant. It's not on the fitup chart. That's odd.

So I just put the model numbers for a grass bagger into a search,,the same numbers as this old post of mine!! lol And this is the only link that came up on the Google page!!
I have another grass bagger the same as this thread refers. And I just answered my own search!! I had no idea I was this smart!!

Sometimes we surprise ourselves. As I get older, that happens less frequently. :tango_face_smile_bi
