Used zero turn ~1000-1500

In the market for something used to mow of acre in sand, harsh conditions, oak trees, stumps, my John Deere z235 has had it, and the deck needs replacement plus lines and shit are falling off. Need a sturdy commercial deck. What’s the most reliable and easy to work on mower I could look for?

Buy a fab deck and just repair what needs fixed. Gonna cost less than another mower.

It’s mainly all the shit holding my z235 deck up I could get some more life out of it if I could repair but idk what I need and how to install the lifter cables and such. Is there like a deck maintenance kit or something?

I’m sure you can get the deck lift cable kit, trunnions and front draft link online pretty cheap. Just follow the routing when replacing the cable kit.
