Before ordering parts , make sure there isn't something else stopping the spindle. Like the "blade brake". The replacement spindle is "7012524 YP" . There is a good source of data on the forum Index page . There's a "series 4&5 Parts book" , and a "series 4,5,6, and later service manual " free download.
Old Snapper RER 25 Deck Spindle. Cannot find a replacement.
I Bought this old snapper 6hp RER for $50. These have sentimental value to me since we had them as kids at my Mom and Dads. I plan on Restifying and using it..
After a trip to the car wash, I soaked the carb overnight and got it running great. I fired it up to mulch up the leaves and Unfortunately the deck spindle seems to be shot. I blade seems to be fairly newish and doesn't look bent. Seems to run good inside with the deck.
I cannot seem to find a Part# for the spindle. All the parts fiche's shows a silhouetted spindle and do not give a part# for it or any internal parts for it.
It is Snapper model 25065 . I'm not sure how to tell the series model of these yet. I'm just getting back into them after 30 years.
Any Ideas?
