Just picked up a 1998 345 with only 458 hours, 48 inch deck, great tires, all body panels, original owners manual, motor cranks, some rat damage to engine harness but easily repaired. Needs a deep thorough cleaning and polish, came with some new filters an a bunch of JD parts. Paid 150.00

Good to see another X320 running and mowing. Mine is a 2010 with no hood. I’ve run into just about everything on my 5 acres and I kept the hood on as long as possible but it finally broke into many pieces. I still find them from time to time. A year and a half ago I took it apart, cleaned off as much rust as I could and painted it. Removed the deck and replaced the spindles, pulleys, belt and blades. The deck got the full treatment and looks almost like new. It’s a good little mower and I’ll take it any day over the Z535M that sits in the shed most of the time with one thing or another wrong with it. Thanks for the video

Got a x324 don't run .but rhe pulley on the part you push broken off and seems they had weld tack the bottom to hold it.. can that pulley be replaced?

I have a 2005 X320, and am encouraged to see this one still with a good transmission at 1500 hours, mine has around 750 hours. This model has the K58 Tuff-Torq transaxle which perhaps is sturdier than the K46 that the lower cost mowers have. The K58 isn't easily serviceable though... but you can put drain plugs in it so you can keep the oil changed out. Lots of videos of how to do that on KZread. Thanks for the video, great job! :)

I was able to get 3 john deeres from different people for free

So did you have to beat someone over the head to buy that mower for $250? Cripes. See, I have a problem with you buying this for $250, being in for a 'total of $900' then saying you can 'easily sell it for $1800'. Sure, I'm going to get a lot of haters, no doubt. You literally had zero risk in this mower. At $250 if you could not get it running, you could part it out and get more than you paid. Sorry, I think the seller rolled over for you. All IMO of course.

This happened to be a situation where the person was going to junk the mower so we offered to buy it instead and they set their price. Nothing crazy.

@@WesternEquipment Wish I could walk into a deal like that... 'round here (midwest) people are asking truck-crazy prices for mowers that are literally beat near to death.

No, it mows about a little over an acre every week and does a great job!

John deere lawn and garden tractors are garbage..

Who makes a good mower in your opinion?
