Looking at picking up a used MTD riding mower from a guy in the paper.

It's either a 1997 or 1998 model, side discharge.

My question: If I get this machine, will a new mulch kit ordered from
Lowe's
fit this bad boy? Or do I need to hunt for something from a comparable
model
year?

THANKS


Forget about a "mulch kit" - just a waste of time and money. Just mow with
the damn thing. What does the Lowes kit consist of ? Maybe a 2nd blade and
a chute block LOL. Lowes is fairly easy about returns. If you insist on
a mulch kit just buy the damn thing and if it doesn't fit, you must acquit -
er, I mean, take it back. Otherwise we need the model #'s / size of the
MTD and the Lowes kit you are looking at.
