Yes! I would thoroughly enjoy watching and learning about the assembly of the tuff series snapper. I currently own and use the 2810 series Snapper which has served me well over many years! Thank you Jim for all you do!
Sure hope you video all the build on this 33". Your tutorials and videos helped me keep my 33" going. Being able to watch your do your magic again will be the Cat's Meow!
I appreciate that you take the time to make videos and educate the rest of us Snapper owners on how to make needed repairs. I run my 28" hard year round!!
Hey Jim..love to see the RER assembled..but for me if I'm going to rebuild a tractor i will go to the trouble to repaint it..i use hi temp engine paint... It's very durable..you are the only repairman on RU-vid that works on snappers.. therefore that makes you the snapper wisperer..lol..see you on the next one cheers friend 🍻🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍
Yes, would love to see more of your Snapper videos. You have a great way of explaining the reasons how and why things need to be done. Thanks for all of your help!
Hi Jim, I’d like to see the assembly of that 33”. Looks like it’s going to be a brand new machine with all those new parts😀. Shame the previous owner was lied to by the dealer not able to getting parts. I’m sure he wanted to sell him an expensive, new machine. Our Snappers will live for decades and generations (if the kids still want to mow their own lawns 🙄) as long as they’re maintained.
Mine is a 2004 33 inch that I rebuilt 4 yrs ago. Just cut the grass. Runs and drives perfect. I put sealed bearings in front wheels and a Snapper mulching kit on it. I replaced just about ever other mechanical part I could get. I took engine apart and replaced cam and lifters and resealed it. Other wise it was fine. Gave it a new factory carb. I even replaced the labels after I painted deck. One of the safety sensors failed last year. I unpluged the brain and it starts with the key on. It's a pull start.
I miss my 33, but my 1999 28 inch does great! The front ends on those RER's are Wayyyy too light. Never any front traction going up an incline, or turning going down a hill. Looking forward to the series!
Great video Jim. I would be very interested in this build; I've never seen one these type of RER Snappers in person. That looks like it's going to be a Monster Snapper 💪💪💪💪💪& super tough for sure. I bet the original owner did take good care of it seeing what he paid for it brand new. I know I have; They've always have been a top shelf mower IMHO; I still have self propelled walk behind that I bought new in 1985 that gets used every season; Although I did replace the original engine after 33 years along with a few other items. Still cheaper than a new one. I hope You make a series; SNAPPOUT.
Rebuild the 33" Snapper. I have one like it I would like for you to rebuild, the only problem is I am in North Carolina. So I can watch you and maybe I can do it myself. Enjoy all your videos.
@jimjackson9381 probably no need, my 33" extra tough is doing ok, I just have a problem finding folks to work on it, and I have too many other projects. I just wish there was someone closer like you. When I bought my current rer, the seller and I bonded over your videos. You truly are a remarkable resource for those of us who love these machines.
I wasn't even aware there was a "tuff" series! My old 3 series has just been restored, and parked til Spring. And WWWAAAYYYY too many hours of video of it. (but that's because I'm a lousy videographer, and an even worse editor).
Based on your observations as mentioned in previous videos, and my inspection of 4 standard planetary gear sets, I don’t think one out of a thousand will actually benefit from the tuff series. Maybe if you ran one 40 hours a week year round. I have a tuff series but haven’t had a chance to open it up. You have very little risk providing a warranty for the Snapper, but some of those newer B&S engines sitting on the back of that machine…
If you're just mowing a yard during the summer you're probably right. But some people use their Snapper RER to regularly mow the church grounds and cemetery, or a picnic area or other land by the lake/river. Fence rows in a field or pasture where a tractor mower can't get to. Plus I move firewood during the fall and winter with a Snapper and a trailer. So some mowers do get rougher usage, especially when doing stuff on hilly yards and grounds.
